Joshua, Melissa, & Declan

About Me

We are the Johnson Family! Melissa & I have been married for 5 years now & our son Declan joined us a little over two years ago! We are surrounded by cajillions of awesome friends and family whom we love VERY much and many of whom you will find on our friends list here on Myspace! We both work for Dow Chemical and we call Lake Jackson, TX our home. I am Joshua...I love my family...I love playing guitar, piano, & singing...hanging with my friends, shmoking the tobacco pipe, watching movies...etc. These things calm me down and offset my general high-strungedness. I am currently back in school working on my degree in Mechanical Engineering. Life is busy,and awesome. Be sure to drop us a line...we'd love to hear from you! – Joshua

Our interests are watching movies, reading, hiking, camping, traveling, rock-climbing, music, and just hanging out with our friends and family, we love you guys!

Television:

As far as television goes: first of all let me say a big THANK YOU to the nerds who invented the DVR aka Tivo. Without this wonderful contraption we would surely be confined to the limits of broadcast scheduling, therefore missing many important TV moments due to having actual lives....That being said, we tend to be happily addicted to the following chioce programming: Heroes, American Idol, So You Think You Can Dance, CSI, House, Dexter,anything on the History or Discovery Channels or National Geographic Channels, Band of Brothers, Carnivale, Deadwood, Without a Trace, and Cold Case

Books:

The Bible, C.S. Lewis (fav - The Great Divorce), Kierkegaard (fav - A Sickness Unto Death), JK Rowling (fav - what do you think?), James Patterson, Janet Evanovich (fav - Stephanie Plum of course), Mary Daheim, LM Montgomery, Anne Rice (fav - Vampire Chronicles), Stephen King (fav - The Dark Tower Series), Tolkien (fav - just about anything), Ayn Rand (fav and ONLY fav - The Fountainhead) and many many more...

Heroes:

Jesus Christ, our parents, and our friends
