More Photos from Mother's Day

Failed Family Photo

On what was a gorgeous Mother's Day in Pittsburgh, we decided to try to take our own updated family photo.

Unfortunately, our photographic amateurism got the better of us, and we were unable to crack the code on the lighting (could've used you there, KJ).

Although we obviously won't be sending out any prints, I thought I'd share one of our more worthy efforts.

Macie's B-Day

Here are a few pictures of Macie enjoying her birthday cake. We had a BBQ tonight with chicken, burgers, steak, and everything in between. It was truly a Johnson B-Day with the amount of food we consumed. Valerie's parents and two grandmas came over - a good time was had by all. I hope everyone is doing well.

Happy Birthday, Macie-Lou!

Valerie was right in her comment to the last entry...the blog is suffering from a lull. So as Scott would say, "What do you guys want to talk about now?" :) I loved all of the Riley quotes that Valerie shared! That girl is too funny! And today is the b-day of our youngest niece...so BIG birthday hugs and kisses to cute little Macie! You people with the kids need to post some updates/pictures so that we can all get our fill of those cutie pies! For instance...why didn't we get a Felix potty blog?? Maybe NOT with pictures, but still... :)

Things are fine for me. My graduation went well, the party was lovely, and it was wonderful to have family in town to share the fun! I'll have to bug Keith and Maggie to share some of the pictures they took. Now I'm looking forward to a little down time...although it will likely be very little down time since I am involved in writing articles on various topics, and have been asked to teach an undergraduate Children's Literature course this fall! Crazy, I tell ya!

That's all from UNLV. Hope you are all doing well...it will be SO fun to get together for the reunion this summer!

Happy Mother's Day

Since I'm surely the first Johnson child awake this morning, owing mostly to living at least two time zones ahead of the others, I thought I'd be the first one to wish a Happy Mother's Day to "Gam-ma" Johnson, our family's matriarch.

Thanks for all the time you've spent teaching, cheering, comforting, and uplifting us throughout the years. We love you and appreciate everything you've done for us!

We're looking forward to re-uniting this summer and getting new family pictures!

Oh, Savannah!

Here are a few pictures I took today in Savannah, GA. I forgot my camera so these were taken with my phone and aren't the best quality. I'm here for a records management conference which runs through Friday.

Margie On The Scene

The director of Margie's play took some pictures at one of the rehearsals to share with the cast. I just thought I'd share one for the family to enjoy.

Hope everyone is doing well.
