Girls Treat 2009

So Bruce went to Girls Treat!!! He had a lot of fun here are some pictures of the night! The kids look so good! Makes me miss my high school days! The pic where they are eating is the day after...They didn't want it to end!

What's new? Same Old Thing!

My mom says I am a horrible blogger! She is right! But I really don't have anything new going on.....Let's see Brandon is playing football. His team is going to the superbowl for the 6th year! I don't think Brandon knows what an accomplishment this is....Bruce is playing football and doing very good for being on the JV team as a freshman. Bruce will be going to Girl's Treat this weekend. This is a formal where the girl asks the boy and pays for everything! I love this! LOL! Anyways we still have to get the tux and shoes and flowers....But the kids have a great time and I can't wait to see my son in his tux! Well that's it for know I will post pics this weekend of Girl's Treat!

Here some pics of Bruce at Tracy High.....He looks so big.....At our house we all take turns posting pics.....Bruce on his Facebook, Brucey on his My Space, and me on my Blog....Guess were all proud!

Man's Best Friend

This is Bruce trying to relax and even the dogs are fighting over him!

So this weekend Brandon played his cousin Timmy in football. It was a nail biter. But in the end Brandon's team won. What really touched me was the way Brandon cared more about his cousin & Uncle Tim (coach of the other team) more than the game. His cousin & him actually were captains and he gave him a quick hug before the game. That almost made me cry! All in all last week was a great football week in the Russell house. Bruce & Brandon won both of their games!

Today I can tell you has not been one of the best. But God has blessed me with the 2 greatest people. That is my Mom & my Husband. When life doesn't always go as planned I can always count on them. They keep me grounded and sane. They make any situation seem better after talking to them. They are positive and strong people and they are both mine. So no matter what happens I know I always have them and their love. Unconditional love is more comforting than anything on this earth. I hope that I can always show that to my children, my husband, my family, and my friends.

Ok so I am officially a horrible blogger!!! But I am going to start up again at least posting once a week. I love reading my sister's and cousin's blog and I hope other people will enjoy reading mine. So let's see my oldest son Bruce started high school and got moved up to the JV football team. His Dad is so proud. I am just so happy that he is getting really good grades! My youngest son Brandon is doing great in football and just made a traveling baseball team ranked 4th in the nation. He is not too excited about baseball right now but I know as soon as football is over he will be in baseball mode. We will be traveling to New York next summer so he can play baseball in Cooperstown New York. Other than that life is pretty normal. I can't believe how big my boys are getting....In a couple of months they will be 12 & 15......The green & yellow team is Bruce's high school team & the red & black team is Brandon's football team
