Jolly's Latest Adventures

Jolly went on a backpacking trip in the Sangre de Cristo mountains in July with his brother, Nate, and several guys from our church. They had an AMAZING trip - the view at their campsite was spectacular. Their final destination was close to treeline, about 12,000 feet. Also, he has been working with several students from our college group on how to get in on what God is doing on the CSU campus. Last night around 9pm they chalked huge Realm (name of our bible study) logos all over the student center plaza with hopes that it will give them opportunity to talk to other students about the gospel and the vision of this ministry. Jolly re-did the website as well, check it out: http://www.therealmcsu.com/

Samuel's Room!

Jolly found the camera this morning - so here are some pics of Samuel's room. The adorable sweater and hat in his crib were lovingly knit by his Aunt Katie - she's amazing. My friend Deb and I made the curtains and the girls who threw our shower encouraged friends and family to bring books instead of greeting cards, so he already has a well stocked library!! Can't wait to bring our little boy home to this wonderful place!

Baby Update

A few things of interest:

1. We decided to name the baby Jolly Samuel Johnson Jr. - we'll call him Samuel as long as he'll let us :O)

2. As of Saturday, baby is considered full term!!

3. The doctor said she doesn't expect me to make it to my due date - I am 2 cm dilated and 70% effaced.

4. The nursery is finished, and I would love to post pictures - but I can't find the camera :O(

5. Can't wait to introduce you to little Samuel.
