On July 7, 2008, The Crazy Awesome Johnsons went to the Savannah River to take pictures for a surprise for somebody. It was a lot of fun, and the family looked awesome! Oh, need a good photographer? Call the Johnsons!

The parents of the Johnson kids are very talented photographers. If you ever want a good pic, call the Crazy Awesome Johnson family! (No, it doesn't say that in the phone book, but it should)

Mikayla wants to be a writer!

Mikayla (the person who's making this) loves to write, but she hasn't ever made a story which she thought was good enough. Her parents say it's really good, but you never know. Hmmm, you should try it! (writing, I mean) It's really fun to do, and it's easy! C'mon, try!

We Love You, Charlie!

Our cute little bunny, Charlie, died tonight. It's been a pretty emotional night in our house. Charlie was only about 9 weeks old. We don't know why he died. He was acting normal until around bed time, when he suddenly started hopping around his cage very erratically--almost flopping-like. Then he started making little screaming noises. Sherrie took him out and held him close. He was paralyzed from the hips up; all he could move were his hind legs. He was breathing very rapidly and drooling. Then his eyes started to glaze over. Sherrie went to ask the neighbor across the street to watch the kids so we could take Charlie to the animal hospital, and he died in her arms.

We had a funeral for Charlie tonight and buried him in the back yard. The kids were very upset. Matthew and Ethan don't really understand, but Mikayla and Jayden took it very hard. We talked a lot about death and resurrection. By the end of the evening, the kids, while still missing Charlie, seemed to be doing pretty well.

Charlie was a really cute bunny, and we all loved him. He'll be missed around here. We're especially going to miss seeing Ethan playing and cuddling with his "Char-Char".

We love you, Charlie!
