3rd Annual Johnson Picnic

We returned to WI for the 3rd annual Johnson picnic. It was hot and it seemed like there were a ton of flies, but what can you expect from a farm? The Lord blessed us with no rain. It came before & after, but stayed away through the entire afternoon. Here are a few pictures from a fun day.
we celebrated my Grandma's 80th birthday
my mom and her 11 siblings
here are just SOME of the grandchildren,
great-grandchildren & 1 great-great grandson
(there are NO spouses in this picture)
Gator rides are always a favorite activity

Morgan spent almost the entire picnic in a small pool. I don't know why I never stopped by to get a picture of her.
My aunt Suzy was kind enough to work on her vacation and give the girls a haircut to get them ready for the new school year.

As you would expect, Morgan had a hard time standing still. So my cousin Desiree held her head still, otherwise she may have ended up with no hair!
Games are always a big part of the picnic. Here is a video of Shelby participating in a Popcorn Relay.


This year they brought in a dunk tank and it quickly became a favorite. Shelby had a lot of fun with this and was successful hitting the target several times. Here is a video capturing one of her turns.
Morgan took a few turns too. Watch and see the benefits of being little. :)
