The Russo's

We don't usually do much for Valentine's Day since my birthday and our anniversary are within 10 days after. Josh did a surprise dinner at home the night before- it was very sweet!   Josh had been working a lot and he had a free Saturday two weeks ago. We had a little family day to spend time together. Josh and Hudson played frisbee in the yard.  Josh convinced Hudson to get in this culvert and rolled him around inside. He liked it!  Then, Hudson rolled Josh around too. Gianna would not get in at all :)  We planned on doing something outdoors, but it got cold and windy. We ate lunch at Raising Cane's and then went to Bass Pro Shop.  The aquarium was drained for repairs, so that was a bummer. They tried out the boats and vehicles and looked at the animals.  Hudson said, "Why are we leaving? We didn't get to do anything." I guess Bass Pro was more entertaining when he was younger. I'm glad we were able to spend time together ...

We have an extra room that I used as a home office, but after Christmas we needed a place for Hudson's drums. We decided to make it a playroom also. The kids still take things out and play all over the house. I hope as they get older they will stay in here more.  We made the ABC paintings for the wall. Hudson did most of the finger painting, but Gianna helped a little.  On Monday, the girls came over because they were out of school. It was a rainy day outside, so it was a good day to have them over. They played camping, house, colored and watched a movie. It was a fun day for them. They liked being together so much that they asked Hudson to spend the night at their house.  He has never spent the night before, but he wanted to go. I was prepared to go get him no matter what time it was. They made cupcakes, which he really likes. There were two times that he said he wanted me or to come home. It wasn't too bad, because I didn't get a call to go ...
