Life has been busy busy busy at the Russell household these past few weeks. There was trick-or-treating with Pearl on a vey wet Halloween this year. This is a picture right before our little elmo went out into the streets and turned into a soggy elmo. She had a blast though and did not want any help carrying her pumpkin. Pearl and her dad are still eating the benefits of her wet walk door to door.
Shortly after Halloween we found out that Light up Night in Bridgewater is Saturday, November 18th. So we have been getting ready for that the past couple of weeks. The decorations started to go up little by little and Pearl got excited more and more. The only battle that we have had is taking the decotations off the tree. Other than that she has not been bad. She is so much fun to watch as she explores everything. We have a bust of Santa holding baby Jesus that is sitting at her eye level. She is always looking at it and saying baby. I told her the other day that it was baby Jesus that Santa is holding. She stood looked at it for a whily and now everytime she goes over to it she says Jesus points to Santa and than baby and points to baby. We still have some work on this one.
Christmas is going to be soooooo much fun this year with Pearl. I can not wait.
Last week we went to visit Corben's family for an early Thnksgiving and Chirstmas with his brother and his family. It was great to see the family and Pearl loved playing with her cousin Jared and Alyssa and seeing all her grandparents and great grandparents on Corben's side of the family. She doesn't get to see them often.
