Mom: I don't really taste the difference.
Dad: I prefer the black refried beans.
Nate: I am like you and dad. I don't really taste the difference and I sleep without socks!

State Chess Tournament 2010!
Once again the boys have been participating in the chess club at school each Thursday morning. Today was the 2010 State Chess Tournament, which has become a yearly event for the boys, and once again they did not fail to disappoint! Nate earned 3.5 points (won 3 games, stalemated 1 game, and lost 2 games) and placed 13th for 1st grade! T.J. earned 4 points (4 wins, 2 losses) and placed 17th for 4th grade! It amazes me that they do so well each year against so many kids. I am so grateful to the Johnson's who run the chess club each week just for the benefit of our community. What wonderful people we are surrounded with! The chess meetings have grown so much and our school ended up placing 6th place overall! It takes dedication and a strong mind to play 6 games of chess over an 8 hour time span. I am so proud of them and their accomplishment!

McKay's Funny Sayings
While at Disneyland, McKay threw a towel in the trash can and said, "I love that trash!" McKay LOVES everything. He is constantly saying "I love that" to the strangest things!
It had been about 3 weeks since Mike had shaved. Needless to say, he developed quite a beard and finally decided it was time for it to go. McKay didn't notice until later while waiting in line for a ride and then he asked, "Dad, where is your beard?" Mike said, "It's gone, I cut it off." McKay's answer was, "But now you are not Santa!"
Another time while waiting in line, I told McKay that he was getting so big and he replied, "I am growing big for Jesus."
