Christmas skirts







The girls picked out fabric and sent it to Grammy with request for homemade skirts. She delivered!

Since our Easter dresses came with reversible purses lined with this fabric, they wore their skirts for this photo op. Thanks Grammy!

On a side note, today I noticed a hole in the knee of Naomi's favorite pants. When I mentioned to her that we will have to get rid of them, she protested saying, " NO, Mommy! We'll send them to Grammy, she can fix anything!!"

Our Olivia, the artist

March is Youth Arts Month at the Community Arts Center. Olivia was one of 20 kids from her school chosen to have her art displayed for the celebration.

Art is Olivia's favorite subject!

MTU Preschool Cabin Fever Carnival

Naomi's preschool had their annual Cabin Fever Carnival this weekend and we headed out to play and volunteer. Olivia won some cupcakes at the cake walk.
The girls and I take a break from coconut bowling, treasure chest hunting, cotton candy eating, and the limbo to pose for a photo.


Chris, aka el Presidente, works publicity and ticket sales. We had a record attendance, the Rozsa lobby was swarming with families, balloons and sunshine.

Olivia on her way out to play with the melting snow. Typically, because we have so much lake-effect snow, it is fluffy and not moldable for the purpose of snowmen and snowballs. When the weather warms, the snow gets gloppy. We are having so much fun with it! It is half gone now....

Mommy's birthday present

For my birthday on the 20th, Naomi made me this block, bead and homemade crayon collaboration. It was a welcome treat on a day spent helping Olivia with the flu and chickenpox. A friend of mine made me a CD of music, another friend gave me a yummy cookbook of soup recipes, another friend left crab dip and Sangria on my porch, another friend, a 9 layer chocolate cake. Chris brought home a big beautiful fern and we all decorated cupcakes together. Happy 32nd to me!
