THE EARLY YEARS- I was born April 15th, 1985, in the American Fork, UT hospital.  My mom had to have me by c-section, just like the rest of my older siblings, because we were too big.  I weighed in at a modest 9 lbs, 11 oz, which was quite a bit smaller than my older sister, who weighed almost 12 pounds (big fatty).   I grew up in a house at 657 North Brigham Avenue (in AF) and then moved when I was seven years old to a house that was eight blocks away.  There were about a dozen little girls my age in my new ward, which was the opposite of my old ward, where little boys were the vast majority.  Even at that young age, I knew I had left the good odds behind.
HIGH SCHOOL & FRESHMAN YEAR- I had an ideal experience in high school- lots of friends, lots of fun things to do, and really great teachers.  My favorite classes were AP language, AP biology, chamber choir, and AP music.  I was involved in several organizations, including the girl's soccer team, the National Honor Society, student government, choirs, track (briefly), and the jazz band.  After a great senior year, I moved on to BYU with a 4-year, full tuition scholarship.  My freshman year I lived in Heritage Halls, in 216 E. Richards, with 4 other girls from American Fork (Claire Bangerter, Jeanette Moody, Leda Wilkins, and Shaliese McKinney and Angela Gibbons from Albany area, New York.  None of us knew her before, but she still lives with me, so it turned out for the best.
RIGHT NOW- I currently am living in American Fork, waiting to get married!!  I'm marrying Michael Andrew Johnson on February 15th; we were engaged on December 2nd.  He got home from his mission just 4 months before that, in August.  After we're married, we will be moving to Alpine, UT, to live in a basement apartment.  It's going to be awesome. 

Also, I will be graduating from BYU with a BS in Geological Sciences in August and will hopefully be attending grad school in the fall.  Either that, or I'll just work until we can get Mike through school.
