i caught you smiling, shiloh!

shy was sitting in her little bouncer, looking at the toys and reaching for them. she was having a great time all by herself. had to take a pic.

do what comes naturally

this past sunday, some friends of ours at church gave us this little comic strip. they said it "made us think of you guys."

wow.

The Outlaws

found this old picture in the family archives. the johnson clan circa 1889.

ps. don't mess with dad.

Bathtime!!

waylen loves the bathtub. like my dad did with me, i get to educate him on all types of fish & sea creatures. for example, dolphins & sea turtles are gentle, and they swim right past waylen. they aren't looking for any trouble. however, you need to watch out for baby piranhas.. they bite, pinch and nibble!

Happy Christmas

Here's to a holiday celebration filled with bad reindeer sweaters, flannel, long johns, egg-nog, uncle eddie, gingerbread, frosting, sparkling lights, tinsel, tree skits, bing crosby, frank sinatra, manger scene displays, hot chocolate, hot wassail, toboggans, stripped socks, leg lamps, fake turtle necks, scratchy wool scarfs, log cabins, smoking chimneys, snow days, snow angels, gift cards, tylenol, festive caroling, and the like.

Love,

Waylen and Shiloh
