In July, The Johnson Family was on a road trip from Sugar Land TX ( a suburb of Houston) to Utah and Idaho to see family. They were in a horrible car accident in west Texas and tragically their 2 youngest daughters were killed and another daughter is still in critical condition.
Their story has affected me in many ways. The Johnson’s have 6 children and they were making the same drive that I have made many times myself. They were on their way to pick up an older child returning home from a mission for their church. As we were coming home this summer across west Texas in early July, we sadly came across an accident similar to this one that has impacted my husband and I greatly.
TODAY, until 9pm tonight there is an online auction to help this family that you can take a look at HERE.
Each item will be open for bids for 24 hours only!! The cutoff time for the first round of bids will be August 22 at 9 PM PST.

There are some really cute items in this auction! Go HERE and take a look!
Part comedian, part Dad, part athlete. He will boss around your children while they play ball.
Just as angelic as she looks, this girl could easily raise a Village by herself, and all the children would grow up to be President.
Self proclaimed, she would be a webkinz dog. Because, "they're cute, and puppies are too. And they're sweet and they always get along with other puppies."
This mini-Martha Stewart can handle ANY craft you send her way. She isn't all bows and rainbows, she's got karate kid moves!
Not "Pick-Me-Up" like caffeine, she wants you to pick her up! AND NOW!
Anything that can be destroyed WILL be destroyed!
Practically Perfect in Every Way for now! Nicknamed "The Panda" she is rolly polly and lives by the motto, "the little one, is KING!"
The resident Labradoodle, Miller got his name because Mom won and got to name the baby! Need something chewed up? He'll take care of it. Especially if it's expensive..
Tiffany,
Thank you for posting this. I know the Johnson family and in fact our family was on a road trip around the same time and we went to see them at the hospital shortly after this happened. Hopefully the word will be spread and many will participate in this auction. They have lost so much but have great faith.
God Bless!
Hi Tiffany,
I’m trying to bid but I don’t have a blog account could you tell me how?
Did you try “open ID”? I think that is a way to do it.
I will try that… Thank You!
