2010 Christmas

Christmas Family Photo at Randy and Stella's.
Christmas Family Photo at Randy and Stella's 2007

All the grandchildren.


Santa flew over Randy and Stella's and dropped off the kids gifts. He also dropped some candy and bells. I love this tradition.

Bella was so excited!


She loves her new food set.

Randy and Stella's kids and spouses.

Rossetto's Christmas Eve tradition is to eat chicken and polenta at Grandma Rossetto's house. Bella is enjoying it for the first time.

Santa came to Grandma Rossetto's!

Even the boys were excited he had come!

Ripping into the goods.


Preforming for us with her new microphone and her boa.

A very sad Bella in time out for being a poop at Hyde's Christmas. Even pouting she is a pretty baby girl.

The boys and Uncle Harry.

They are such good looking boys!

BITTY BABY!!!! Carla bought Bella her Bitty Baby. It was all she wanted for Christmas. Can you tell she loves her?

A nightlight even makes this kid happy!

There are still more presents?

She took forever opening gifts. Bless her heart. She would open one gift and want to play with it then open another 10-15 minutes later.


Santa finally came to Grandma and Grandpa Rossetto's!

More presents!



Wow~


She was so much fun this year. I try to hold on to these memories because time is flying. She is going to be our last one to get excited about Christmas so we are enjoying it all while we can today.


Hey Mom, where are my gifts?



Maddy looking for her gifts.


Our traditional breakfast delivery from Mary and Jeff.

Our little Mermaid.


Then came the big surprise! Uncle Mike and Aunt Michelle out did themselves and bought Bella a "truck"! She loves it!!!!

Ooops, she drove it into the couch! It is very cold here so I am letting Bella drive the truck in the house. As you can imagine she loves it, but my walls are suffering. And, poor Suzie is over the truck, I am sure of it!

The best part of Christmas 2010 was it was a white one!!!
Larry and Zak playing in the snow.

Happy New Year

We rang in 2011 with four other families at our house last night. The above photo is of my favorite girls. Left to Right.....Sabrina, Callen, and Bella.
Callen's Mama calls her "Sparkle". I found the purple t's online at Gymboree and I had to have them for the girls. Are they not the prettiest girls ever? I have known Callen since she was 4. She was secretly my favorite little lady in PreK at St. Ann. She is a neat little lady and I am very excited that Bella looks up to her. And looks up to Callen Bella does!

Da Boys! They played PS3 or watched movies all night! When you have 10 adults and as many kids in a house things can get crazy. Not when these kids are at our house. There was NO MESS upstairs, and they never fussed at each other. They are all great kids and we are all very lucky parents.


Zak is so serious when he plays video games.
Sweet girls watching "Toy Story 3" in my bed with Bella. They played with her all night!
Things were really calm until this point. We decided it was a good idea to get out the Lemonchello. Let's just say we were having fun up to this point, but we really had fun after this point!
It is so smooth and sweet it goes down very easily! Thus, we need another bottle. I have to tell you all that I have FINALLY learned my lesson and did not do one shot! Nope, shots kill me and I have finally gotten to the point in my life that I can admit I cannot hang.
Eling and I . Not my best photo, but oh well.
I am not sure where this was going but I am sure the hand talking really got the point across.


My friends are fun girls!!!

It is always a good idea to check out someone's camera to make sure there are no photos that could be used as blackmail. I am sure there were blackmail material photos on here, but apparently I thought they were funny.
Taking pictures of each other taking pictures. Are we the only adults that do immature crap when we drink too much? How high school is it to take pictures of someone taking pictures of you? It was funny at the time......
Happy New Year to you are yours! 2011 has a lot in store for us. Stay tuned to see what it is and how we accept the challenges of the new year!
