Christmas 2010

Christmas was a lot of fun this year. We decided we would have Christmas at our house and not go to Blanding this year! It was both of ours first time not being home for Christmas but it was nice to not travel down there. Plus it would of been a pain to pack all our gifts so we prob will just have it at our house all the time now :) Christmas Eve Cole and Jackie invited us over for dinner and games with all the Pilling family it was a ton of fun we had yummy food and fun games. Thanks guys we had a blast. Christmas morning didn't start very early at our house we got up at about 8:30 Ryder walked into the living room and was so excited he had the biggest smile on his face it was so cute. He loved his car "santa" got him more then anything so he didn't care to open any presents so I hid so he would open them :) lol he loved opening presents the night before at the Pillings so I for sure thought he would love it Christmas morning and he did a little bit he just wanted his car! After we opened presents we went to Crystals house and had french toast and bacon for breakfast it was yummy thank Crys. We came home and took a nap and then went to Kara's house fro dinner because my parents had just gotten up here we had ham, potatoes, crackers, cheese balls, fudge and pie. Thank you Kara and thanks for the pie you gave Clayt :) We hope everyone had a fun and Merry Christmas. We got well loved this year and Ryder loves everything. Thanks you friends and family for all our gifts!

Christmas Card and Letter 2010

Johnson Family 2010

What an exciting fun year it has been for us we have celebrated so many fun moments this year and are excited to share them with you. The best started out on March 19 we were able to be sealed as a family in the Salt Lake Temple. It was such an awesome day and we are so happy to finally be sealed to each other.

Clayton-
Clayton is still super busy as usual and still working for Hadco Construction. He was so busy with work this year that he never really got to go shed hunting he was pretty bummed. He played in fast pitch softball tournaments through out the summer with Northern Electrics team and that kept him busy too. He was able to go Muzzleloader hunting this year but he didn’t get anything, he also had the opportunity to take his niece Kortney and nephew Easton out hunting during rifle season. He did find Kort one not very big but I tease him at least she got one ;) He is an awesome hard working husband/father who loves and supports us so much.

Kyndra-
Kyndra started out the year finishing up watching the older kids she nanny a few years ago but quit once summer started. She sure does miss all the kids she used to nanny but really enjoys staying home with little Ryder. She played summer softball and fall ball this year and volleyball with the ward. She is the new sports director in our ward I think that will be fun :) Clayton got her a puppy for Mothers day and she sure has been a lot of fun but difficult at times too.

Ryder-
Ryder turned 1 this year and had a big party down in Blanding with lots of cousins, aunts, uncles and grandmas and grandpas. He sure did get spoiled :) thanks everyone. Ryder started walking this year too and it has been a lot of fun but he is a busy busy boy. He loves to play with his puppy he chases her everywhere and plays tug of war with her. He love his trucks especially the ones he can ride on. He only says mama and dada and is for sure a mamas boy!

We have been in our new condo for a little over a year now and like it a lot just wished we had a little more space J It’s been a fun eventful amazing year. We are so happy to be sealed to each other and to have the gospel in our lives. We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Love Clayton, Kyndra and Ryder Johnson

Santa Clause

Last Saturday my sister took her kids to Cabelas to see Santa so she called me up and asked if I wanted to go she was already there and had been waiting in line for almost an hour. I decided I would go because who knows when Clayt would be able to since he works every weekend lately. By the time we got there it was already almost our turn sweet no waiting for us lol Thanks for texting us Crys. Lets just say Ryder HATED it lol he was terrified he wouldn't breath his face was bright red it was so sad but funny at the same time. This little boy is scared of EVERYTHING lol he's so cute I love him.

Temple Square

Last Sunday we decided ok I decided lol that we were going to go to Temple Square and see the lights. I asked my sister Crystal and her family to go with us. So we headed to Salt Lake to go see the lights. When we got there it was crazy busy so we drove around for at least a half hour maybe longer looking for a place to park finally we found one. I for sure thought Clayt would just say we're going home but he drove around madly trying to find a place to park. If he would of just payed the 3 bucks for a place we wouldn't of driven around for so long lol but oh well. So we walked around and saw all the lights. It was really crowded so it was hard to walk anywhere we couldn't see the manger close up because there was soo many people gathered around it. It was a little chilly but not too bad at least I didn't think so. Ryder loved the big trees they have just full of lights he would point at them and go oh oh so cute. We I'm pretty sure we drove around longer then what we looked at the lights for lol but oh well. Thanks for taking us babe and thanks for going with us Crystal, Tad and girls.

Ryder turned 16 months the 27 of this month. He is growing up s stinking fast. He has the cutest little personality I love it. Ryder loves his puppy and loves to play tug of war with her. He still loves his blanket and bottle. He loves his mommy and daddy but is a big mamas boy! He still isn't saying any words but mama and dada he did say Papa this last weekend in Blanding :) he usually just points and grunts at what he wants he knows what things are when we say them he just wont say them. We love you Ryder man your an amazing little boy!

Thanksgiving

This year we had Thanksgiving with the Johnson family. We had dinner at Grandma Clea's we had some yummy food. After we ate I went to Grand Junction with Cayt's sisters and mom for the black Friday deals. We got there around 7pm went to dinner and then to our hotel. While we were looking at adds we realized walmart opened at midnight so we decided to go there. We shopped from 11 Thurs night until about 6pm Friday night. It was a lot of fun and we all pretty much got what we needed and wanted. This was my first year to go shopping with them and they are crazy like everyone says but they have fun and I had fun too thanks for letting me come with you guys this year! We came home Sunday morn and we were packed in our car too.

15 month check up

Ryder finally had his 15 month check up today. Poor little boy was terrified every time the nurse or his Dr would walk in he would freak out. Too bad he is starting to know that place a little too well :( Ryder is growing really good and is right on track where he should be he's a little small but not too bad. He really has no chance since his parents are pretty small too poor kid!!
