Update

As many of y'all know, we encountered a huge hassle with selling our house in Liverpool and moving into our new home in Elbridge, but we are finally moved and slowly getting unpacked. It sure is hard trying to settle in with 2 kiddos. Over the past week and a half we have moved, celebrated Jake's 1st birthday and celebrated Christmas. So, we've been quite busy. Look back for pics of birthday day and Christmas! And please come visit us! We have tons of room!!!

Love,
The Johnston's

Jake's First Birthday

As we were in the process of moving, we didn't have a big party for Jake's 1st birthday. We'll have a big one for his 2nd! We did have cake and ice cream at Grandma's though. He enjoyed it!

Happy Birthday, Buddy!

Cutie Pie

Look what I can do!

Let's Go Orange

Gavin loved the Army game so much we realized that we need to go to as many sporting events as possible (as if we don't go to enough already :-)) Monday we went to SU's game against Cal St LA. He had a blast.

Army-Air Force Game

We went to West Point this weekend for the Army-Air Force Game. West Point was as beautiful as ever this weekend.

The boys loved the fly over

My future cadets watching all the action! They loved it!

Thomas and Friends Party

We had Gavin's 2nd Birthday Party this past weekend. As you can see it was a Thomas theme.

Little Engine that Could

Our poor little train....and poor us. It pulls these trains (which are about 1/3 of what we have) for about 5 minutes, rather slowly, then needs a new battery. I think we need to find more motorized trains. However, Gavin has gotten very good at saying, "battery please."

Birthday Weekend

For Gavin's second birthday we did lots of things to celebrate as his party isn't for a couple of more weeks. We started the day with blueberry pancakes at IHOP, then went to Beek and Skiff to pick apples and ended the day with cake and ice cream with Uncle Patrick and a trip to Toys R Us. Then, the next day we went to Johnny Angels with Grandma and Grandpa.


Here's Gavin sporting his
