Russell Beach Reunion

A few weeks ago, the Russell clan enjoyed a beach weekend get together. We don't get to see our coastal cousins as much as we would like, so this was a perfect weekend of catching up, eating, and enjoying the beautiful May beach weather. Warning:picture overload

 cousins William Buster and Lane (they are 4 months apart)

plus Jana

Right before this picture, Shannon made the announcement that she and Robert are expecting a baby blessing in early December! We are so excited! She looks and feels great, and I know they will be great parentals (well Robert will learn, haha!!!)

with the Saturday night Luau theme, Aunt Ann had a little performance planned, it was so cute! They all looked the part though Lane did not perform well under pressure...oh well, it was still very entertaining!

hysterical!!

Such a great weekend, hopefully we can do it more often!
