Your second picture is Armillaria mellea.
The first is quite likely to be R. emetica, however without a microscope it is difficult to be certain which of the pink Russulas you have.
Nice begining QueenLizard54,like Despina said to you,you have to make one spotting for each species,congrats on the photos,thanks for sharing and welcome to Project Noah :)
