The Russo's

Started off with the Christmas story reading   Camo was their early Christmas present, so the morning was low key. They got a few small gifts like lego sets and I Tunes gift cards.  Camo opened his dog toy, but just wanted the paper   We went to Nana & Papa's for lunch. Grace and Jennifer stayed home because Grace was sick.   That night we went to Nana B's house. The kids finally got to play the Saran ball game! Opening gifts   Dillon and Dax were here for a week  Aunt Donna and family came later for dinner  We also played the Saran ball game. It was huge this year! Played some reindeer games  Camo was there in all the chaos   Mom hid our money in different items and we had to open it up to find it  It was a fun night making memories with our family   We did Christmas with my Dad at our house the next afternoon ...

On Christmas Eve at Nana & Papa's we open gifts and eat finger foods. Hudson and Gianna were so excited to get electric scooters and Ipad minis from them!  Yay! The guys got a fire pit   All the dogs came too. Roxie and Bella had matching pajamas, so I made Camo a bandanna to match.   All fell down with their arms around each other Grand kids and grand dogs  Maw Ella gave them Walmart gift cards   Merry Christmas from the Russos! 

The Christmas play at church was on December 22nd. It was about a boy learning that Christmas is about Jesus' birthday.    Quite a few kids were sick with the flu and couldn't make it. Gianna and Grace did sign language to "Noel" by Lauren Daigle  Kaden, Hudson and Noah sang "It's Christmas" by Chris Tomlin. They were rock stars. They acted out the nativity story at the end. Gianna remained the angel. Hudson was a shepherd.  It was good to have some of my family join us for the service
