Here's what's new!

News for the Johnson family:

Abbigail was blessed on April 12th. We had all of Mark's family and most of my family were able to make it. It was a lot of fun to have everyone at our house, it was definatly a full house and we are very grateful that we have a big grassy field next door for all the 25 kids to play in!

Abbi is growing well. We went in for her shots and she is in the 75th percentile for heighth and 50th percentile for weight. She is such a happy baby - so quick to smile and she is even starting to "talk"! I love to hear her talk to me as it always includes a smile and a giggle. I'll have to record it and post it a little later. In the mean time, here is a cute picture of Abbi. Ignore the lady next to her as it is early in the morning and she looks pretty bad! But Abbi has the biggest smile on her face...she LOVES the fan in our room.

I don't have a picture for it, but another little bit of news is that I started my own Mary Kay business. It was a little scary to start as it is TOTALLY out of my comfort zone to approach people and ask them to host a skin care class. But I have done a couple and I am getting much more comfortable and they are actually quite a bit of fun! It's kind of nice to be able to leave Abbi with Mark some nights and I get to leave and have some fun and have adult conversation with women. So if any of you want to host a class or need anything...let me know! :-)

Our last bit of news is that Mark got a new calling. He was released as Stake Young Men's secretary and was called as our ward's Executive secretary for the new bishopric put in on the 26th of April. To say the least he is nervous but also excited because he really likes all three men that are in the bishopric. I think the Lord is determined to make Mark a very organized person! Anyway, here is a picture of Mark with his dad and father-in-law on the day he was set apart for his calling. It was a pretty fun day.

So that is our update for now. I hope all are doing well and I check all your blogs all the time...so I hope there are some new posts!
