P.A.

I have not been able to post the last few days because our family had to go to P.A. because my great-grandmother passed away. It was a very sad time for our family; but, we enjoyed having the entire "Johnston Family" together for the firsts time in years!!!!! We enjoyed remembering all the fun times we've spent together and are hoping to plan a get together really soon. So, even though seeing each other under these circumstances was not the greatest, we had a wonderful time together!


My grandfather is smack in the middle of this picture and he his surrounded by his brothers and sisters.
My cousins Benjamin and Rory!
This is my cousin Tenly who I have not seen in at least ten years, it was so nice to see her again!!
This is my Nana Johnson's house when she was living in P.A. It was so special to drive by and see it now that she is living with us in N.Y!!!
My Great-Grandfather-"Pappy Joe"
My cousin Ryan brought me for a ride in his Mustang (The Cobra). What a blast!!!!
Yes, I love this car!!! Also, behind me is my Pappy Joe's house!


Tomorrow, as long as I have time, I will be posting pictures of my Pappy Joe's yard!!! I know I have told many of you about how well he takes care of his yard and about his huge garden. So, now you'll be able to see pictures. I will also post pictures of us at my Uncle Ronnie's house. We had such a fun time there!!! Stay tuned...
