Sooooo, for the cruise for our 1 year anniversary: It was 7 days long and we went to Jamaica, Grand Cayman and Cozumel! A LOT of pics are on Facebook, so head that way if you want to see more :O)
These were the people we got to eat with every night... we had PRAYED that God would bring who He desired and He brought an AWESOME table together! We looked forward to dinner every night! (food was great too :O) )
We had 3 days 'at sea'
Our routine 'at sea' ... wake up at 9:45, go eat breakfast, head up to this deck to layout and either read, listen to sermons, or sleep. At 2 p.m. Ryan would go and get our lunch - DESSERT TRAYS!!! Then we'd sleep/relax more, head to sushi at 5 ish and then 'real' dinner at 8:15. Yes. It WAS great!
There were two 'elegant' nights and this was the first one. Steak and lobster tails all around!! :O) THE BEST lobster I have ever had!
Quiet time on the deck with Jesus my first morning there :O) So great :O)
We got back from our cruise the day before our actual Anniversary ... I walked into our home and exclaimed, "WE LIVE IN A MANSION!" LOL! We had gotten so used to our cabin on the cruise :O) It was WONDERFUL to spend our anniversary in our home. And Ryan, being the absolute MAN that he is, STILL delivered flowers to work for our Anniversary. THEN, my sister in law and brother in law took us out to an AMAZING sushi dinner ... YUM!!!!
She is NO FAN of the flash... crack me up! BUT, one of my favorite things about her are her ears :O)
LOL! This was the first time she saw the flash... totally startled her :O)
Soooooo, that's how things 'are' in the Johnson household these days :O) (Oh my gosh, we're a "household"!!!) We are loving our new home together, our new dog... Christmas is almost completely up and we're starting a new habit of turning everything off by 8 p.m. to start winding down by studying, listening to teaching, getting in the Word... all of the things that are SO important to grow into who I want to 'be' but don't do if I don't make time for them :O)

On .... to SADIE!! Our new dog! Very tragically the week before we left for the cruise my dog Caedmon (who has been staying at my in-laws for the past year since we were in the condo) was hit by a truck and killed. Very sad because he was going to come home to us when we got back from our cruse (now that we have a house and backyard). SO! We really prayed for a dog with the same personality as his: Docile, gentle, not a huge barker, just a laid back dog that wants to love and be loved. We also prayed that we would 'just know' when we saw the dog... and that is what happened! YAY!! Sadie is 2 years old and some kind of retriever mix. Feel free to share your guesses as to her breed because we have no idea. I am sure MUCH better pics will follow but here are a few for now :O)

It's a new leaf :O)
OH! Also, we're going to have to intall a doggie door ... any suggestions?
