New Years Eve 2019

The holidays are all about traditions and one of our favorite is our New Years Eve night.  This is the fourth year in a row we have rang in the new years with the Rossittos at the Westin NYE party. Each year has a great theme and this year was Mad Hatter.  Lucky for Skylar and Jake they still had pieces from our Alice and Wonderland Halloween costumes so they were able to fit right in.  Madden and I just dressed our NYE best.

The Rabbit and Cheshire Cat

Had a hard time keeping these girls off the stage all night.

2019 definitely wasn't the best year for our family.  We had a lot of loss and heartbreak but we were so blessed to be surrounded by the most incredible family and friends.  I know we never would of been able to get through all of it without those closest to us.  So we give cheers to each and everyone of them and look forward to 2020 being a year of making memories with all those wonderful people.

Christmas 2019

Another successful Christmas Eve at my parents house.  Lots of tamales and laughs where had.

They love spending Christmas Eve with Lennon and Morrison.

Leaving cookies for Santa and carrots for his reindeer.

Santa arrived.

Skylar got her yoga ball chair she asked for.

 

And Madden got a desk for his room.

The kids are really into WWE wrestling (thanks to mom), and Madden asked for a lot of WWE accessories.

2020 calendars.  Madden's of course, WWE and each year I make Skylar her personalized one.

New sleeping bag for Madden.

Sushi Go Party from Grandma.  The original has been a hit in our house.

We got Dad an SDSU sweatshirt for him to represent.

The Champ is here!

This picture was taken right before dinner on Christmas Day.  Yes Skylar spent the whole day in her pjs and loved playing with the white board that Uncle Jessee got her.

Santa did really well this year but I must say, the hoverboard gifts from Mom and Dad were the biggest hits of the holiday.
