This is our homemade Christmas tree. Yah, I know that it was such an amazingly cool idea, Obviously Jeff (me) thought up the brilliant idea. But at least we have our stockings hung by a real fireplace for the first time in my life. I hoping for some good stuff in the stocking!
We are standing by a haunted mirror where the spirits of those who have died in the house reside....ooooooooooo!
The Myrtle Plantation is said to be one of the most haunted places in America...at least their tour guides give a good "scary" speech. It was a very beautiful home. If you are just ever so curious can read all about the place at http://www.prairieghosts.com/myrtles.html
Who would have thought I'd go all the way to Shreveport, Louisiana to meet my Great-Aunt. She does look like a Johnson though. We hung out for a while and chatted about the fam. She also gave me a photo of Great Grandma and Grandpa Johnson. She also told me that Great Grandma's family died from an Indian attack as they traveled by wagon out west, she was overlooked by theIndians and a family passing by picked her up and she stayed with that family.
It's not as great as it looks. The water is very shallow so it feels like warm bathtub water, a little creepy when you think you are going for a nice cool dip after getting all hot and sweaty. This is not a resivour, it was not made for water storage. It was made cuz the residents nearby wanted a lake to play on... Please Governor can we have a lake...please...
Hurray!! We found a bike trial that is not within 100 ft of a major road...and that isn't private property where you will get shot.

This is the incredible amount of groceries that Heidi single-handedly brought home from the store on her bicycle...ask me if she was proud of her accomplishment. Um...yeah she was extremely proud of it!
Jeff and Heidi have been married for 5 years. Currently we are living in Shreveport, LA while Jeff completes a degree in Occupational Therapy.
We are expecting our first child sometime around the first of November. And we are having a...human baby.
