Easter with the Rossetto Side

My Grandpa Hayes and my future brother in law Mike
My mom has had this bunny forever. She use to hang it on the front door. It scared the poop out of Michelle and me. This year she put him on the front porch for Bella. Bella loved the bunny:)

Winston and Uncle Mike were told to sit by Bella (by Bella) so her mommy could take their picture:)



Aunt Michelle and Uncle Mike with their Rossetto side kiddos. Oh, and their first baby; Winston.



Bella posed this photo. She is so funny bossing everyone around. I will need to look back at this post in a few years when it is no longer cute, but for the time being I will say it is cute.

Last weekend the kids and I headed to Il for a wedding. My sister's friend from high school was to be married on Saturday. I did not get to go to the wedding, but Bella and I did go to the reception. It was beautiful! Words nor photos can really depict the beauty of it all.


I really enjoy getting to go home for events like Lynne's wedding. It gives me reasons to drive home and see my family for a day. My sister, Mike, and I were able to hang out for a good amount of time because my mom took Bella home around 8pm. Lynne is my friend Nick's sister. Nick's wife and I have become friends through him so Stacy and I also had a chance to catch up. Despite leaving early, Bella had a great time at the reception too. She danced a lot when she was not following "Princess Lynn" around.


The boys stayed at my Grandma Rossetto's house. Needless to say she treated them like she treated me growing up and they were spoiled all night!

Kennedy Family Easter

Bella is ready to hit the streets of Memphis with Grandma and Grandpa Hyde and Aunt Shirley and Uncle Harry.
Bella is styl-n the shades.

We were walking on "Beale".


Grandma and Grandpa Hyde with their Princess.

Aunt Shirley, Stella and I enjoying a frozen drink at Wet Willie's.

Just a cool shot I took on the roof at The Peabody.

Another cool shot I took. This is the first half of the "M" bridge coming into the city on I40.

We ate lunch at this restaurant. It was featured on the "Food Network" channel "Man vs. Food". For my regular readers, we ate another restraunt featured on the "Food Network" last year when my parents and Grandma came down for Easter. It is becoming a family tradition; I guess you could say.

Bella, Aunt Shirely and Gradma Stella dyed Easter Eggs after our yummy dinner of take out BBQ!


Another shot of the girls working.

Our family photo.


And, she is off on the hunt. She was so funny this year. She kept saying "oh here one".

"der another one"


She was so into the hunt this year. She had one at school and all the eggs were filled. You can imagine how disappointed she was when this bunny did not fill her eggs at home.

Cute shot....


An action shot.


The best shot I snapped of all three kids on Easter.


Yummy a chocolate bunny! Bella really got into chocolate this Easter and has been BEGGING for it since. Peeeese Mommy one egg?
I told the boys to change from their church clothes after our family photo and they both came down looking like little bums. I sent them both back upstairs to change into more appropriate clothes and they came down still looking like bums. So, repeat last statement and this is what Nik comes down looking like. My little smart arse!
Bella came down on Easter night with Zak's sweatshrit on and I thought she looked like a little Yoda. Do you agree?

Hopping into Spring

The Kennedy Family is ready for Spring! Spring means school is almost out....something both Mom and Children are looking forward to. I have recently went back to St. Ann full time and am enjoying it. I just wish I could have worked in the dead of winter instead of the fall and spring. Oh, well Bella's babysitter has them outside a lot.


Stella made Bella's dress. She made her 4 of them and I cannot wait to see each of them on her! Yah for Grandma's that can sew!!


Really Need to Post

One of the beautiful ice storms we had this winter.
" Let me out of this house".....poor girl was stuck inside a lot this winter!

Chil-axin on the couch with a snack

This is the stage at school. You can also kindda see the tables.


My really cool bar that turned into a nightmare!

I was so proud of him that day!!!

All the boys and their Mama's. We are very lucky to have such a great group of kids for Zak to hang out with!


One proud Mommy that is YES shorter than her 13 year old:(



My nephew Winston. Is he not just the cutest? I spent one day of Spring Break helping my sister with wedding stuff. Here Winston is saying "Aunt Jana please let me inside"?


Personally one of my favorite decorations.
