Madi's Dance Recital

Madi had her very first dance recital last Saturday at Artemus Ham Hall. She was so cute up there on stage.

Madi and her friend Ashlyn. They did dance all year together. Madi loved going to dance knowing Ashlyn would be there, too.

My pretty little dancer. I was trying to upload the video but it was taking forever!
We are proud of our little Madi Rose:)

Russell Family Happenings....

I can never get my pictures to post in the right order, so in no particular order....

Madi finished soccer the end of May! We are so proud of her. She turned into a great little soccer player and is looking forward to playing again in the Fall. She is so shy most of the time so I was a bit worried, but she did awesome.

She also graduated from Miss Lesly's Preschool. She loved Miss Lesly and all of her friends at preschool. She is soooo ready for Kindergarten....and I'm so ready for her to go! She is a Miss Smarty pants in more than one way:)


Lukey's 3rd Birthday is today:) He is such a funny little momma's boy! I can't believe it has been 3 years since he was born....YIKES! It's flying by!

This past weekend we had a family birthday party for him. We invested in a big water slide that all of the kids loved. We will get tons of use out of this bad boy ALL summer long.

The most exciting news lately is that Lukester is FINALLY potty trained! He has pretty much done it on his own and so far (let's cross our fingers) has done really well! It will be soooo nice to have no kiddos in diapers:)


Our good friends, Mike and Kenna, and their cute little girls, Shara and Jane, came and visited us a couple of weekends ago! We loved having them as our first house guests. Our kids love playing with each other, and we love hanging out with them!

Jane, Madison, Shara, and Luke


This is Madi and her buddy, Joshua. They loved going to preschool together. Joshua's mom and I carpooled and they became little buddies. Lukey thought Joshua walked on water and loved picking him up from preschool more than his own sissy:)
