Wondering where all the fabulous blog postings have been? Wondering about the status of the yard work?
We've been busy in August. First - the Minnesota Johnsons came out to visit the Oregon Johnsons. That was an adventure. See below...
We then had a break for a few days...and camping at Fort Stevens soon after. Those photos just got uploaded to the computer today - and thus that slide show will have to wait a bit.
As to the yard work progrss...the grass was to be cut today - but a storm passed through - so wet grass, and no yard work. Which also reminds me the the story of the cutting down of the tree also has some more tales to tell. The tree is trying to grow back. After less than two months - the growth is over six feet tall. So - another fence saving cutting is in order. More on that as events unfold.

Connor loses a tooth...don't worry, we found it!
Today in church, Connor lost his 3rd tooth. Just after having a conversation with Mrs. Jane Van Ryn before the service about her grandson just having lost a tooth...
Just in time for school to start this week. And school photos to come in the next three or four weeks.
Ah...remember 1st grade photos?

Wow – we actually did it! We crossed the finish line, and nobody had to tow any of us in!
Saturday in the Hood River Gorge dawned bright and clear, with breathtaking views of the Columbia River and riders in multi-colored shirts riding down the mountain. Brian and Tegan, and other diabetic riders, wore “Red Rider” jerseys, proudly proclaiming “I ride with diabetes.”

We had lunch provided by Burgerville before heading up to the family ride, a 10-mile course through the Mosier Tunnels. What an incredible adventure! Tegan and her Papa kept up a running commentary of jokes, while Brian, Briana, and Christina all did double-duty, pulling Connor, Brody, and Faith behind them on tag-along bikes.
We stopped at the turn-around point to enjoy the view, have snacks, and take pictures. At the end, we all received medals before heading down to the Hood River marina to listen to Curtis Salgado and watch the kite-surfers on the river
We feel so truly blessed and thankful to all of you for your support, encouragement, and prayers. In the final tallies (so far), we raised
