More Pictures

Pretty Sarah - are you dancing??
All the pretty girls.
And more pretty girls. Actually bathing beauties would be a better description of this one!
Believe this is taken outside the Atlanta Falcons stadium.
What do you think? Do you think Eric is beginning to look more and more like Poppi? I do.
So that is about it for now. Time to get dressed and accomplish something today.
Pictures that did not make the calendar.

Bob, Devon, Allison and Avery stopped in Atlanta on way to Michigan and spent some time with Eric and family. Believe they all went to Seven Flags or some place like that.
As I remember they said it was very hot that day. They look hot!

SOME PICTURES THAT DID NOT MAKE THE CALENDAR THIS YEAR

Sorry about this one, just couldn't resist!!
Now to the real pictures!
Christmas in Atlanta. Boy oh boy everyone is getting so TALL Just look at Camp. Wow!!

See there they are all happy as a box of birds. Don't the girls look pretty?
Oh and Camp looks pretty dapper also!Another good looking Johnston family that lives in Iowa.

Now I could add some more family pictures, but you can find some on Traci's and Karen's blogs. I would not want to be redundant!
Well I still have some more, but will add them later. This is all for now. Need to get some cleaning done around here. Love ya all.

SO I BET YOU THOUGHT I WAS DONE WITH BLOGGING
I wanted to post a really cool picture that Elie took, but she is so busy with new job and all, she has had no time to download her pictures for me. So as of now this post shall remain pictureless.
Some of you know that the Georgia Johnston's gave me a really cool GPS system for Christmas. Do believe I need to travel somewhere besides Gramp's house and the Red Cross to really get the full use of it. Right now all it seems to want to do is recalculate. Someone told me I had to name the woman that speaks on it. I have come up with a couple - let me know what you think.
#1 Sally Forth #2 Miley. Am also open for more suggestions.
Today I decided to drive to Scottville and try to find their post office. Old Sally or Miley did a mighty fine job. Of course you must keep in mind that the downtown of Scottville is only two blocks long!!
We actually had a sunny day today and some of that stuff that builds up around your tires and wheel wells actually fell off. Yeah!! My poor car is a wholly mess. Can't wait to wash it inside and out.
It is getting way past my bedtime so guess I had better close for now. Love ya all.

Long Time No Bloggin!
Sorry I have been so lax in keeping this blog up to date. I decided I wanted to go private, so I can post pictures and not have to worry about some stranger stealing them. From what I read there are folks that do that. So... it has taken me a while to figure out how to do that. Hopefully I have figured it out. Have sent a bunch of invites out to a bunch of you, so will see who wants to read my blog and who doesn't, I guess!! Suppose if I invite folks to read it, I will have to have something to read. I will try to do better.
For some reason I have been very busy. The leaves have been calling and getting the stuff put away for the winter has been a task this year. Must be getting old or something. Planning Gramps party took a lot of time (but it was worth it). Getting ready for the Grand Hotel trip also took some planning - hey I had to dress up every night - do you know how long it has been since I have had to do that?? That meant trying on a zillions outfits to see what still fits. Poppie always would help me decide what looked good, but now I have to do it on my own. Probably really looked goofy in some outfits. Oh well, what is a gal to do? All these things take a long time anymore!
Red Cross is keeping me busy and the Senior Center Journey Program should be, but has been kinda sporadic this year so far. Most of you know I am working for a couple gals to bring in a little extra cash - who can't use more cash in these times?? Still do all of Gramps shopping and try to see him everyday.
It was a wonderful summer - even tho it seemed quite short this year. Loved having family & friends here - but missed a few of you.
Nothing is happening with the sale of the house. But notice that not much is moving here. Hopefully things will pick up next summer. Got to put some money into pool, if I am going to open it next spring. Sprung a leak underneath it - bummer.
Have been looking at a bunch of senior living places around here to see what I think of them. So far not too much!! Suppose Gramps place should be my choice - if there is anything left of it!!
Well this is it for now. My friends Sandy and Nancy Jo are coming up to visit this week(deer hunting widows) and am trying to clean up the old place and think of things to eat!! Guess what? It is still snowing!!
Will post some summer pics and party pics soon. Really I will!
