The Russo's

Jennifer asked us to go to a drive thru nativity at United Methodist Church in Central. We got there early and had to wait for it to start. Grace and Kaden rode with us. We planned to go to the Zoo lights, but the line to get in was too long! We went Christmas caroling through Port Allen with church. I helped decorate the floats while the kids practiced for the play. All the kids wanted to ride in the army truck and not many went on the trailer that Josh was pulling.  It was a fun time singing around town  We went back to the Zoo during the week to see the lights  There was a deer behind him  They had her favorite -flamingos!  It was a nice time walking around with the family and seeing the cute animals  The kids made gingerbread houses at Nana B's house  They did girls v. boys and the boys won. Nana wasn't happy that the girls were messy. They all had fun anyway!

I'm so thankful for my family and all that God has given us!   We went to Nana B's that night for dinner  Jules said the blessing                                                She loves Hudson!  Camo was worn out by the end of the night   The next day we picked satsumas at Paw Paw Brent's house   Jules was laying in the bed with Camo   We decorated our tree that weekend. Some of the lights were out, so I had to add a string of lights to it.  The kids were a big help to me   We have a ...
