The Russo's

During VBS, we talked about water baptism in one lesson. Gianna had said she wanted to get baptized and Hudson agreed that he did also. They had a day coming up at church for August 25th and we signed them up. They understood the meaning of it.   Noah, Grace, Hudson and Gianna getting ready   Gianna went first of the grandkids and Papa got emotional. It was an honor to have him baptize them.      Hudson went next and he started crying       So proud of their decision and it made our hearts happy!  

We missed two years of the zoo run, but the kids wanted to do it this year. Emerie was also doing it.  The 1/2 mile race started at 7:45 am on August 24, 2019 Hudson was so determined to win  Coming to the finish       Hudson was 3rd place in boys and got a medal at the awards ceremony  Gianna was 4th in girls, so she was very close to getting a medal So proud of them for doing a great job!   We walked around the zoo for a little while after. It was Jules first time at the zoo. It's always a fun time at the zoo run!        

Josh took her to breakfast at Waffle House on Saturday the day before and her party was that afternoon She wanted a painting party with a cactus theme     Her cousins and friends from church were the guests   They had 3 designs of cactus to choose from             They each had a cupcake to decorate     She loved all of the gifts  Showing off their masterpieces  Playing cards after the party That night the family came over for dinner, cake and presents  She was so excited to get a hoverboard! Everyone wished her happy birthday on Sunday and we went to Cici's pizza after church  Now her and her doll have matching chairs. She has been into painting, reading, doing nails, cooking and her dolls. She still likes to talk a lot and fast at times, likes to sit with her Daddy in his recliner. We still call her wiggle worm because she do...
