March 2024

Celebrating my birthday with my favorites. 

Madden went on a double date to the movies with his girlfriend Isabelle (the one in the blue sweatshirt) and his friends Cooper and Harper.

Just a few pictures of Skylar from viewing week.  Unfortunately she sprained her toe the weekend prior and wasn't able to dance much that week so that is all I got.

Rainbow Dance Competition

 Skylar's dance competition season has kicked off and we are all here for it.  We love supporting and cheering her on whenever she is on the stage.  This year she is participating in 4 group numbers.

 Took Madden to indoor sky diving.  He loved it to no ones surprise.

Madden and Jake went to their first hockey game.

Skylar had her dance Showcase.  Below is her with her hip hop group.

January 2024

 Madden and I attended WWE Monday Night Raw together.  The tickets were my christmas present from the kids and Jake.

Celebrating Lisa's birthday.

Madden attending Evan's birthday party.

Lennon and Morrison made it out to support at his soccer game.

It's the end of an era for Madden. After 3 years straight of playing soccer year around he has decided to retire.  He never once complained about going to practice or a game, but he doesn't have it in his heart anymore to play and wants to focus strictly on football.  We couldn't be more proud of him and the work he had put into it.  He was a great teammate and player and we are excited to see what this next sports chapter brings him.

Lennon and Morrison came down and spent the night with us.

Liam stole the show at the Christmas Eve present opening ceremony. He was at that delirious baby point where he is but having the best time but you know he could crash at any moment.  Lucky for us he didn't and was having a blast with all the kids.  It was fun to have a little one for the holidays again.

Choke hold on Skylar.

I'm so upset at myself as I did the worst mom job ever and got ZERO...yes ZERO pictures on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.  I think this year I was just soaking it all in and enjoying all the moments, which still isn't an excuse but I really was.  I feel like we had a blast at Christmas Eve with all the family and playing unless games of Left, Right, Center.  

I really wanted to take our time opening presents Christmas morning with the kids and enjoy that special moment with them so below is the only picture I got of any presents.  

We had a pretty chill New Years Eve by going to the Aviara Resort with the Rossitto's.  Had a nice sushi dinner and played Top Golf.  Sadly it was our first NYE without Skylar who was having a slumber party at a friends house...she was missed.

2023 Holiday Card

 Recreating the iconic Vibe Magazine/Death Row magazine cover was an idea I had been thinking about doing for the last couple years.  We were so happy with how it turned out and it was actually a lot harder to recreate than it looks.  We got a lot of messages from all our 90s hip hop loving friends who thought it was a hit!

Jake's 42nd Birthday

 Glad had a pretty mellow 42nd Birthday.  His mom came down to celebrate and we also had Morrison and Lennon make a special guest appereance.  Madden started his day off with a Madden Special aka an omelette.  If you haven't had one you are missing out since he cooks the eyes in bacon grease.  

Morrison made Uncle Jake a crown to wear on his big day.

Suzie made Jake is childhood fav tamale pie and we made him a massive ice cream cake to top it off.
