Just a quick note I was able to add the new device to the VG "vgdisplay" helped by allowing me to see the layout of the VG and get the size information.
This was the order when adding a new device for me:
pvcreate /dev/hdd1 <==== new device is prepped? for VG
vgextend VolGroup01 /dev/hdd1 <====== extend the VG to include the new device
lvextend -L12G /dev/VolGroup01 /VGforMyth <==== extend the volume, I used the information received from "vgdisplay" to get the entire size of the VG. (this would extend to 12GB)
mount -o remount,resize /video <=== in my case for JFS this was the resize command.
Thanks for all the help.

I think I understand that I need to extend the LV next then adjust the size of the LV.Since this is a JFS filesystem is the command to extend it correct? "# mount -o remount,resize /video" /video being the mount point for the VG.Thanks,

Don't you mean extent the LV? I think he's done everything right, but
just missed the lvextend step after the vgextend step.
