It's FIXED!!!



A couple of weeks ago I was getting ready for Church and my CHI flat iron died!!! For any of you who have had this experience know that you cannot survive with out it. First of all CHI's are expensive but so worth it. Secondly, I have had it for three years and it still looks brand new and worked like a champ. Third, there were no signs that it was on its last life; but that morning it
just stopped working. So for the past two weeks I have suffered trying to use my old big one and two other curling irons. With all that my hair was still looking horrible. Isn't that sad, three couldn't do what one can do.

Anyway, Colby new had sad and depressed I was. I had been looking on line for CHI's and actually found some really good deals. But, Colby took the liberty of being Mr fix-it and tried to fix it.

First he took it all apart, and we found the problem, a wire had become disabled.

That was it. So it could be fixed! So we bought a solder and gave it a go.
But after two attempts, my hope was dwindling.

Then Colby's friend Pat was in town this past weekend and new more about soldering than we did. With a little persistence................................. IT WORKED!!!!

Here is the happy recipient!! Cal me crazy, but all I wanted to do was to wash and blow dry my hair so I could use it. Oh, I am so glad to have it back.

Any Ideas???


HELP!!!!

SO I have been thinking about what to do to capture those precious moments. Should I do a scrapbook,

should I just keep an album with little descriptions.....

I just don't know. Does anyone have any ideas of what else to do to keep memories and photos. Scrapbooking can just get so expensive and I don't really like the digital scrapbooking look very much unless you know something I don't. So please help me! What are you ideas?

FINALLY!

Finally we have found out!! We are having a girl!!!

Everyone was sure it would be a boy because the Johnson's only produce boys. But we proved them wrong. To be honest I was kind of hoping for a girl because I couldn't find any cute boy stuff. It was all dumb little sayings and dinosaurs. So I thought I cursed myself and we were going to have a boy because I couldn't find anything cute boy things that were not super pricey. But I can use the cute girl stuff I found. Colby had a feeling about a month ago that it was a girl. HE is a little nervous because he doesn't want to get wrapped around her little finger. Ha ha little does he know. He is going to become a softy after all!

Now we just have to worry about naming her!
