Thanksgiving week

Thanksgiving week was full of family, friends, food and fun! All those things start with F... :) anyway, it was a busy week- like most holidays are for us. It started off on Sunday with my friend Chelsey's baby shower. Our friend Rachel came in town, whom we haven't seen in 3 years. It was a lot of fun catching up.

On Wednesday, Jen and her family came in town too. Nash was so excited to see Hudson and couldn't wait another day. They stopped by the Russo's house where we were. 

The kids did some turkey crafts at Nana & Papa's house on Wednesday night and had lunch on Thanksgiving Day.
Thursday night we went to Jamie's house for dinner. The kids put on a show for us. 
Then they made an Oreo turkey. 
The big girls went to do some Black Friday shopping at Target. We got a late start since it started early, but it was fun just to go. 
We went to Old Navy on Friday and had lunch after. Gianna and Jetta were very good while waiting in line to check out. 
Friday night all the grand kids slept at our house. It was a little crazy especially when it was time for bed. No one wanted to go to sleep and we had multiple kids in a room. A few cried, but they finally went to sleep. 
On Saturday afternoon we all went to a birthday party for a mutual friend. It was a princess and knight theme. 


Gianna didn't want to dress up, but she did get her makeup done by Rapunzel. 
Hudson thoroughly enjoyed his cupcake! 
I enjoyed spending the week with everyone I care about. We have so much to be thankful for everyday, not just on Thanksgiving. We are truly blessed! 
Just for fun- November 2012

She did a great job! The ballet and pointe dances were so powerful and beautiful this year! I always get teary when I watch and this year was no different.  I volunteered on Sunday for the last showcase I was with a class next to Jules and got to watch some of her dances from back stage.  Gianna and Jules were both in this showcase, so my parents came to watch on Sunday A long weekend for the big girls, but they love doing it

February 2025

The girls had dress rehearsal for dance. I went on the Thursday class on the 6th. We got to see a preview of the dances.  Hudson had his first driving session on February 10th. He has to do 8 hours of driving with 2 hours being at night. I waited in the parking lot until he left. We did pretty good waiting while he was gone, but we kept checking Life 360. He said it was fine, I thought he was a little nervous. Afterward, he said it was no big deal. I guess we shouldn't be surprised, since he has been driving off road vehicles since he was young.  We spent Valentine's Day at home and made pizzas.  My birthday was on a Friday and I had work. Josh surprised me with an orchid for my desk.  I had lunch with some of my family at Albashas. Dillon was in town for something else and was able to come to lunch.  We celebrated our 19th anniversary by going to The little Big Cup in Arnaudville.  The food was really good. I had the crab cake and eggplant stack and Josh h...
