The Russo's

On the Thursday before Easter, Gianna and I went to school for an egg hunt and party. Hudson was off of school for Good Friday and the week after.   The older kids hid the eggs for Hudson's class to hunt. Gianna was in there finding eggs.   All the eggs had candy in them, so everyone got something. We went back to the classroom to have cake and juice then played in the gym.   On Easter Sunday, Josh took Hudson to breakfast at McDonald's for his birthday. (which was the next day)   Russo family at church  We went to my mom's house for lunch and took some pictures Nana B gave them each a basket filled with goodies and got a bouncy house to jump in The moms hid Easter eggs for the kids  Some eggs had candy and a few had money. Hudson won for the most eggs found and Nash won at a game we play "egg pocking"  This year we even had a real bunny. Leilynn go...

I did my first 5K run at the end of March. Jennifer kept asking me to do it and convinced me to sign up. I have never done anything not even a 1 mile fun run. So, I signed up thinking it was going to motivate me to get running. I did some running, but I wasn't as prepared as I should have been.  The run was at Oak Alley plantation in Vacherie, LA. It was very pretty. They had a craft fair on the grounds after the run too. The course went around the plantation, up the levee and back to the house through the oak trees.   Almost to the finish line!   I didn't jog the whole time, I had to walk some. I didn't expect to do that great, I was just glad to finish. It started out with a big group of girls going, but a lot of them couldn't make it. We had fun with our little group of four.  For Josh's birthday, he requests a cookie cake from the mall. The kids and I went to get it, so he could take his Sunday nap in quiet. Hudson was so excited ...
