This last Friday Tessa got to be a Cheerleader. So was so excited and only made it to one practice. She did great for the EHS cheer!! Then for the dance she got a little shy. She was the youngest and smallest one there. She had so much fun though that she asked me today when she was going to cheerleading. I wish I had better pictures but this one is the cutest!!

We Have Arrived!!!
We are finally in Escalante and just about settled in. So much has happened. When we first got here we spent the first few weeks fixing a water problem. We could not use the sinks on the north dide of the house because they would back up straight in to the bathtub in our bedroom. I finally decided that what the heck and would do the dishes, drain the sink and run to our room and bail it out of the tub and into the shower. After 2 weeks of doing laundry in the bathtub with a brand new washer in the laundry room I hooked the thing up and had the same routine for washing clothes. I almost flooded the bathroom a few times when I got busy with other things. Russ is having a good time being a trainer and getting to do a little cowboy work on the side. Tessa is having a hard time adjusting and not having friends to play with. I am working on finding her some. Everyone hibernates for the winter though. Lexi is getting ready to walk. She loves to stand up and take steps and fall. She now has two bottom teeth and a top one should break through any day now. I am keeping busy by cleaning and reading and playing w/ Tessa. We try to do pre school once a day and find reasons to get out of our jammies. Escalante is little but the people are great. I am going to try to upload some pictures but I am working w/ a 28.8 connection and loosing my mind. Besides that all it well.

I thought I would take a moment to say that we are going to make the final move tomorrow. It has been an long Christmas break. The girls have been going non-stop, they just don't sleep. We spent Christmas in Kanab and everyone passed around sickness. Then we went back to Cedar and packed up the rest of the house. On Friday we got two horse trailers and packed them full. I sent Russ and the stuff on his way. He called me about an hour later to tell me that his truck had broken down on the side of he road about 30 miles out. Who says life is not boring. We got the stuff to Escalante and got the truck back to Cedar to be fixed. We then cleaned and came to Kanab for the New Year. That was the night we finally got the girls to bed early and I crashed Hard and Fast. New Years day was an event in and of itself. The Johnson family should hire and event planner. We went to St George to go bowling but the place was closed till 2 so we all jumped in our cars and sped off to Mesquite. We went bowling there and missed the buffet by 10 minutes. So we jumped back in our cars and sped back to St George to eat at a different buffet. Now we are all stuffed and happy and ready to put the new house together. I wanted to add pictures but everything I need is in a box somewhere. Soon I promise. I hope all the holidays were good and we love you.

We are Moving!!
We finally found a job that meets all of the qualifications we have. We will be moving to Escalante Ut a few days after Christmas. Russ is in charge of the horse program and is really excited to get started. He has been gone most of the time working on a few different ranches so when he was home this weekend we had some fun. We went to our ward party and Tessa was so excited for Santa Claus and then we went up the canyon that afternoon to go sledding. Tessa was such a trooper and hiked to the tippy top of the hill. Lexi was a good sport as well being stuck in her snow suit with her arms straight out to the sides. What fun.
