Happy Mother's Day and B-Day mom

I hope everybody enjoyed their Mother's Day. Pi'ikea and I didn't do too much. She actually had to work that night so I made breakfast for her. We were also given a break from teaching our primary class, the young men and young women from the ward took over for the week. Other than the typical stuff not much is going on.

Pi'ikea is staying busy at work and taking care of our little Chloe. She is getting very big very fast. We took her to the vet yesterday and the vet she is healthy. She is as cute as always and very very smart. She is starting to get a couple of commands. You know the traditional ones like sit, shake, and lay down. She loves kids. There is a park that we walk to the has kids playing at it sometimes. She just loves to chase them around.

We bought a car a couple of weeks ago to replace the dying Ford Taurus. We purchased a 2005 Honda Accord Coupe. It get much better gas mileage than the Taurus. It is also much faster. It is black with black leather interior. The leather plus the seat warmers make me feel fancy.

Work for me is pretty much that same. Super busy winning some jobs and losing others. I am back working on some of the big downtown City Creek job. Sorry it is short. We love you and can't wait to see a few of you in two weeks.

The Craig's

I love this time of year because of the weather. It is beautiful. April was a great month. Conference was great and so was Easter. Paul and I watched Saturday conference at mom's and dad's and Sunday we spent alone at home. I got a new calling that weekend too. I can't remember if I already said this but I was called to Young Women's camp. I am still in Primary but I was asked to go to girl's camp and help with the 2nd years.It will be something new and fun. Primary is fun. I taught Sharing Time last month and loved it. The kids love learning about Jesus. Easter was fun. Paul and I spent it with some friends in our ward. One of the families had triplets and Paul and I got to babysit a couple of times which is fun.
Work is going well for both Paul and I even though we are ready for a break. We signed up for Netflixs and love watching movies and 24 on it. We just need vacation to watch more of the :)
Nothing else is happening but life is good. Enjoy the pics :)


Paul with 2 of the triplets when we babysat them. They were all angels and slept the whole time

All three cute babies eating dinner with us. They are almost 4 months old

Me with Paul and my Easter baskets. We hid them from each other and I won the Easter hunt

We dyed eggs and had 18 eggs to dye and 12 different colors. The eggs turned out really well.

Paul goofing off while coloring eggs

Some of our Primary kids at a Primary hike. The president took the front of the pack and ended up running the whole time because the kids were running. I took the end of the pack and was stuck behind all the slow parents.

The Johnson Family

Hello Family-
I hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the Spring weather!! We have had an interesting Spring so far. There has been snow, hail, wind, sun, and rain. Our family has been busy, busy, busy with after school activities, work, school, etc. Here are some of the highlights of our month:

Nicole had her 100th day celebration at school. She glued 100 flowers to a shirt and 100 flowers to a hat. Nicole had a great day!!

Taylor loves Coco. When the girls are at school, Taylor plays with Coco. She plays polly pockets, reads, colors, and snuggles with Coco Nut!!

HUGE HIGHLIGHT!! Nicole learned all of the 72 phonograms. She has worked hard all year long, and she has memorized all of them. Last week, she had an end of year test. She did awesome - an almost 70% increase in understanding. YAY for Nicole!!

The Girls have been playing and playing and playing. In this picture, they are playing Mail Woman. Kaylee converted a stroller into a steering wheel.

It snowed outside....so the girls decided to play BEACH inside.

They laid beach towels down on the floor, got water, and swam around on the wooden floor.

Easter Sunday!!

Easter Dresses...The girls have worn these dresses for the past 3 Sundays.

Taylor loved her goggles - she can make the funniest faces.

Nicole lost her front tooth. She was eating a hamburger and her tooth was just hanging. Next thing we knew, Nicole's tooth was missing. We thought she ate it, but we found it on her chair. She looks so grown up!!


Warren's new Office - We love it!! It is still keeping us pretty busy, but it is well worth it.

HAVE A GREAT MONTH!!
Kim, Warren, Kaylee, Nicole, and Taylor

Second Leg of our Farewell Tour

Before I start on the Texas trip, I have to explain our new found game, Thanks to TJ, this is Words with Friends. As you call tell it is a Scrabble game we play on line using my ipad, everyone else on their Phones. TJ started us, now we have games with Jill, Mollie and Paul, and of course TJ. So far T is the champion. We have a lot of fun, and are learning all sorts of new words and words we had no idea were actually words.





Now for the highlight of April, our trip to Houston. When we arrived, Jadyn had to show us Rapunzel. She looked beautiful and sang the song about the special flower.
The boys, of course had no interest in Princess stuff, so they brought out the cars to play with and show us,


We where there Easter Sunday, so of course, we had to dye Easter eggs. We had some very colorful eggs and the kids had a great time.






Jadyn and Joshua wanted to show us how well they ride their bikes, everything went great until we were almost home, and Jadyn wanted to race Joshua and had to look back to see where he was and she had a little accident.


A few tears where shed, and many bandages where used, but in the end she seemed to survive.

Jonah discovered a stroller in Jadyn's room, and off he went-everwhere. Sometimes the stroller was loaded with things, other time empty, either way he had a great time pushing the it around.
On Saturday night, Jill had an Open House for us to to goodbye to our friends in Houston. We saw so many friends for our time in Houston. I had my camera out, then totally forgot to take pictures. But you guys will know the names. Sevy's, Rawson's, Stolle's, both Mickles, Meehans, who are leaving for Honk Kong on a Service Mission in August, Balls, Nielsens, Jan Lancaster, Sister Franklin, Collins, Jill Claybrook and so many more. We had so much fun, Thank you Jill.







Easter Sunday, and 4 very happy childred. Eggs, candy, books and alot of fun.


Jadyn was in her Easter dress, bright and early before the rest of us had a chance to get ready for church.

On Monday night for Family Home Evening, we went to IT'S. It has rides and games and Pizza, what more could you want.


Joshua hit the jack pot with his spin to get 1000 ticket. Those tickets sure helped when the kids went to the little store to use all of their tickets to redeem prizes.




Kim and the girls came to see us the last weekend in April. Warren was in Moab, so the girls came down to see us. Kim went to the temple on Thursday night, so we decided to make pizza with the girls. It was delicious!

We had a great April and look forward to May and Utah to see family and friends there.
