1st Semester of School

We went on a field trip to the Knock Knock Museum in December   Mrs. Peggy from church had discount tickets for us and came along.  They had a great time. I'm glad Hudson was still in to it because I think he is starting to grow out of some of the kid activities.  Gianna entered the cookie contest for 4-H again this year  We made snowmen out of nutter butters and white bark. Hudson helped decorate them.  She won the most unique award  Hudson missed a few days of school to go hunting with Papa, but he didn't kill anything this season We learned about the Louisiana Purchase in history and colored maps   We did rainbows in Bible with each topic that we studied so far  They both finished the first semester with good grades. They each picked out a prize, but not what is pictured :) 

Christmas 2019

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 ...

Christmas Eve

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!
