Busy.....Busy....Busy......




it has been a busy....busy... weekend at the johnson house. mr. johnson got back home on friday afternoon and the whirlwind that was our weekend ensued. we spent friday night looking at the office he'll be taking over and trying to make some decisions about that........the saturday morning we went furniture shopping for the office and we still aren't any closer to deciding than we were a week ago....then it was off to a birthday party for a sweet, sweet boy in the little hen's class......the hen's had a blast......then i dropped them with their granny and papaw so mr. johnson and i could make a trip that we have been so excited for.......




we went to huntsville to see our dear, dear friends the winkles. after a battle with infertility, they welcomed beautiful twins into the world last thursday! chase alan....and claire marie made their grand debut.......we have waited and prayed for these sweet babies for many years.......wow......when our God blesses he really shows up, huh?.......i wish the winkle babies and their momma and daddy a wonderfully blessed life............




today has been really rushed...with mr. johnson leaving again....and all the pollen has me and the 2redhens feeling like we are stuck in a drum....ha....... we made it to sunday school but had to leave before church because the little hen felt so bad.......we were however happy to have a dear friends the grimes' back in our presence......they have had a rough couple of weeks because of decisions mr. grimes is making in his job.......i'll leave it at that....... but please remember to pray for them and thier safety, daily.......along with stellan......

Oh, my soul..........

When clouds veil sun
And disaster comes
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul

When waters rise
And hope takes flight
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul

Ever faithful
Ever true
You I know
You never let go
You never let go
You never let go
You never let go

When clouds brought rain
And disaster came
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul

When waters rose
And hope had flown
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul
Oh, my soul

Overflows
Oh, what love, oh, what love
Oh, my soul
Fills hope
Perfect love that never lets go
Oh, what love, oh, what love
Oh, what love, oh, what love

In joy and pain
In sun and rain
You’re the same
Oh, You never let go

ATV Riding in Bankhead

so....last week was spring break for the 2RedHens.....so mr. johnson has the fabulous idea to take them 4-wheeler riding.....after much hestiation from the little hen.......we set out.........and as you can see they had a blast.......minus when addie got the shiner from having a run in with the handlebars....ha......
i want to share some funny convo's with the hens while riding thru the forest.......



little hen : momma how far into these woods are we going to go?
me : i'm not sure why, are you tired of riding?
little hen : we'll i think we should turn around now...because nothing good ever happens in the dark forest! (i wish i could express how very serious the girl was)




big hen : momma how come you don't drive your 4-wheeler as fast as daddy does?
me : well i don't want you having another run in with the handlebars.......
big hen : don't blame daddy's driving .....blame him for asking me to look for turkey's and not letting me pay attention......ha
and you should have seen the eye on saturday.......way worse........it was swollen almost shut......and she in all seriousness told me that she felt like a redneck now that she's had a black eye.........and the stories she told on church sunday....priceless........

And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. matthew 7:25

really....has it been a month?.......well, i have been super busy, plus mr. johnson has been home this month and not traveling so i haven't had as many late nights.....but he leaves again next wednesday......so i'll be posting more i'm sure......what else is there to do at 1 am........anyway on to the reason for the post.......i have been blessed to be a stay-at-home momma for the past 8 yep count them 8 years....and since my little redhen started school i have been itching to find something part time to do. i wanted it to be something that i loved and could really enjoy....so, about 3 weeks ago i get a call from a mother in the big redhens room at school asking if i would be interested in working with her........she is a wedding and event planner at the local golf course.....would i be interested?...it's only my dream job!......so, i interview and get the position....yeah!.....it is super flexable and i only work from 8 till 2......so, i can still take and drop the hens at school.......so.......i'm loving it......well, so far......ha!
