The Russo's

Gianna, Grace and Kaden did the color run at the library. Hudson didn't want to run, but he came along. He went and helped throw chalk at a station.  I had dinner and caught up with my high school friends when Rachel was in town.  Gianna started dance in August. She is doing her level classes plus ballet intense and pointe.  Hurricane Francine was making landfall in Louisiana on September. It wasn't anything, but a little rain.  We were sitting outside watching the weather  The kids were trying to create funny pictures Josh was home and cooked some rice dressing and fried chicken Gianna had been telling me she couldn't see far distances, so I finally took her to the eye doctor. She needed a prescription and picked out these clear frames for glasses.  Josh riding Cason around on the 4 wheeler at Jennifer's house. He loves to ride around.  Mom celebrated Gianna and Charli's birthdays at her house with lunch and cake

I took the girls to the mall for lunch and the candy store and boboa tea.  We had a ladies tea at church and we dressed up in dresses and hats Mom decorated the tables and used real tea sets  This was our table This teacup is from my great grandmother's set  Gianna and Grace helped serve the hot water for the tea A couple of ladies shared and we ate good food It was a nice afternoon Hudson can fry fish own his own now and does very good I tried to take the kids to get ice cream at the LSU dairy store, but they were closed. So we got a frosty from Wendy's instead.  Cason on the drums during practice  The cousins w...

Our girl turned 13 and is now a teenager! We have two teenagers in the house. It is hard to believe that we are here already! Gianna wanted a sausage charcuterie grazing table for her birthday. Josh made a few kinds of sausage and we got all the other things to go with it. It was a family dinner on August 16th. Mom and Doug didn't come because they had covid.  Josh took her to Waffle House for her birthday breakfast on Saturday morning. Then they had a youth outing that night at Main Event. We went to Albasha after church on Sunday, her actual birthday. They brought her baklava.  We are proud of our G girl and the beautiful young lady she is becoming!
