Merry Xmas from the Russo’s for 2015
Hello to all our family & friends,
2015 is nearing the end as we fast approach December 25th! Wow! Year after year I always write, “Where does the time fly.” This year has been a full and prosperous year and our family has been blessed with love, laughter & prosperity.
Even though we are all only a year older I do feel we are getting much wiser. Ha Ha! I have worked hard and had many very successful closings. Ron continues to help me with my Real Estate Business and the many clients we help each year.
In June Ron & Isabella where able to take a week’s holiday and travel to Costa Rica for some fun in the sun and adventure. Ron and I had been to Costa Rica previously in 2014 but this was Isabella’s first trip there. Isabella was able to have a surfing lesson and both her and Ron explored a new beach each day, as well as, the rainforest, zip lining and many other fun adventures. Isabella was especially happy as the drinking age in Costa Rica is 18 and she was able to try a few exotic tropical cocktails!
In August Isabella returned to the University of North Georgia where she has completed her final term there with straight “A’s” in all her classes. The fall term is now over and Isabella will resume classes at the University of Georgia, the university she will receive her degree from, in the spring. She is very excited to begin her studies at this new University that has many more classes and opportunities to offer her!
She will be applying to UGA’s Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication in the spring as well, because her major is very competitive and requires you to apply for it and write a statement of interest to even be accepted! She is planning on majoring in Entertainment and Media Studies, as well as, obtaining UGA’s Music Business certificate.
In September Ron and I were finally able to take a break and spent a good fun week at the beach in Rosemary Beach, Florida. We took our bikes and enjoyed great rides along 30A visiting and eating at our favorite hot spots. The weather was fantastic and the dog’s loved the trip as well!
In October Ron & I brought our first RV – Travel trailer and were able to take another holiday back in Florida and a get-away weekend in Tennessee. From this great experience we realized two things, 1) that we now enjoy RV trips and 2) that we needed a larger RV – Travel trailer. So we sold our retro RV trailer and bought a larger RV that has push out’s on either side for larger space and room inside the unit. We will be heading to Florida again December 27th through January 5th, with our three dogs; Max, Calli (our blind dog) and Georgia.
Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year and can’t wait to we can all get together again!
Much Love,
Annemarie, Ron, and Isabella
All the best for 2016 my lovely family in the US.
