The thee Cousins Andrew, Zowee, and Noelle

More Holiday fun

Happy Thanksgiving

We had thanks giving in Lolo this year with Grandpa and Grandma Foy, Craig and Allison, and Papa. Zowee had fun dressing up and posing for pictures

Zowee also had fun making pilgrim hats out of marshmallows, cookies, and chocolate. or maybe the fun part was eating them?

Noelle got dressed up for the occasion as well.
Noelle has become an excellent crawler and is doing her best to star walking by Christmas. she has been pulling her self up and standing next to anything and everything.

Big Sista!!

Zowee yells this phrase all day long. "BIG SISTA! Baby loves her big sista!" It is true though, Noelle absolutely loves Zowee even if it means head locks and smooches and loud songs being sung right in your face. Noelle just smiles and laughs. Even when Zowee fell off the couch and landed on her, Noelle just laughed. I had a heart attack, on the other hand. It is so neat to see the special relationship that they have and Noelle adds so much to the dynamics of our family. If you haven't seen the Johnson circus yet, you'll have to come over and visit!

This is a picture from this summer that our friends gave us. We had a great time visiting friends and supporters in Missoula! Zowee liked all the adventures that it brang and all the people that she got to meet.

And stick it....

Zowee started gymnastics this fall and is having a blast!!
She is doing great and actually listened to her teachers when they stoped calling her Jillian and start calling her "Zowee!" We are going to try to put a short video on here so you can see her in action. We go and watch her lesson and pretty much laugh the whole time because Zowee is moving constantly and at high speeds. They have upbeat music going and she just can't help but dance as she is doing gymnastics. You have to see it for yourself!

Zowee video from way back

We've never posted videos before , but now we are getting more hi-tech! This is our all time favorite video of Zowee at about 8 months when we lived across from the Ter Louws in Bible School in Wisconsin. Noelle definitely does NOT rock out on the jumper like Zowee. She just sits there and laughs at all of us. :) So, what can we expect from Zowee's up and coming gymnastics and dance career? She was born with this energy!

Our home's in Montana!

We are thrilled to be in Montana this summer! It is such a blessing to be reconnecting with friends, family, and supporters here! Thank you everyone who has helped to make our time here so special!

All worn out from Camp!

We had a great time taking care of staff kids at Camp Utmost! Zowee made lots of new friends, but really missed her Daddy while he counseled 9th grade boys.

Zowee loves Noelle so much!

Zowee is loving this baby sister stuff. She'll even do "Tummy Time" on the ground like Noelle and sit in her baby car seat. She loves tickling her and getting Noelle to laugh. She gives sweet little kisses and big big hugs that we usually have to put an end to finally because Noelle is still so little. :) I've noticed that even if Noelle hears Zowee's voice across the house she will light up and smile really big.

Happy Baby!

Meeting Grandpa Bill!

When we finally got to Montana, Noelle got to meet Grandpa Bill and get some cuddle time in.
