The life of a Johnson in Dublin

Since we moved back to sunny California we have decided that this would be a good way to try to keep our family and friends from afar updated. We have embraced the over the top soccer addiction here and now have 3 kids playing! Each day brings us happy surprises and challenges to work on together as a family. We hope our life out here in California will be enriched, strengthened, and full and that we will be better people and a bonded family from our memories here.

Tilden Gardens

We stole Lauren Alt for the day and ran to Tilden Park with her!

Here we are riding the steam trains around the park.

What part of the park do you think Sam LOVED the most?

The Botanical Gardens had beautiful and various plants, trees, flowers and vegetation demonstrating all different areas of the state of California.

Here Sam and Lauren are riding an old Merry go Round at Tilden Park. They actually have real horse hair tails!

Feeding the goats lettuce from our garden!

WHOOOA! Slow down you crazy giraffe!

So much to see. So much to explore!
