Annemarie and Ron’s Americana Christmas 2018
Merry Christmas everyone from the Russo’s
At the end of January Annemarie travelled to New Zealand to spend 3 weeks with Mum, Dad, and family and was able to catch up with Kevin, Clare, Karl & John. A great family reunion, not only with immediate family, but also a good catch up with Aunts, Uncles, and cousins.
Ron & Annemarie were back in Atlanta in March. Isabella was in Athens, finishing her final semester as an undergrad at UGA in April. Go Dawgs!!
Our family celebrated Isabella’s graduation from the University of Georgia in May. She graduated Magna Cum Laude (with great distinction) with a BA in Entertainment & Media Studies and a certificate in Music Business. Our beloved Bichon, Calli, crossed over rainbow bridge to join Max, at the age of 14 years old.
In June, Isabella left for a 6 week back packing adventure around Europe with her friends. Isabella travelled to Ireland, Spain, Italy, Greece, England, Germany & France. While in France she met Ben and the two have been dating ever since. Ron & Annemarie spent 5 days for the 4th of July on the North Florida Beaches of 30A.
Isabella & her cat, Fitz, left home in August to work and live in New York City. Annemarie spent 10 days in NYC helping Isabella settle into her new apartment in East Village. Isabella started working for iHeart Media as a Post Production Assistant and Fox Network as a set production assistant on the show Gotham. Ron & Annemarie spent 10 days in our Motor Coach at Huntington Beach State Park in South Carolina. A great beach area with great bird watching and long beach walks.
While travelling in France, Isabella meet Ben who works in the media industry over there and they seemed to like each other enough that Ben came to visit Isabella in NYC from Paris for 3 weeks in September . Isabella celebrated her 23rd birthday on the 17th Sept with Ben and her NYC friends.
Ron & Annemarie drove their Motor Coach to Naples, Florida in October to the new lot they purchased in Pelican Lakes Motor Coach Resort for the winter season. Now they travel back and forth to Atlanta for work and Florida for pleasure enjoying to tropical weather.
Isabella left for Thanksgiving in Paris in November for 10 days with Ben while Ron and Annemarie enjoyed Thanksgiving in Naples Florida.
