Chris & Nicole ~ Christmas Eve 2008

Christian, memories like this will continue to fill our hearts with joy. You will forever be remembered and missed. We love you so much.

Our Christian

Here are a few pictures from our Christmas Eve Family Party 2008. I will compile an album of our party at another time, but for now... this is for Christian.

Avary is on Two Stamping Packages!!

Hey there, Family! I wanted to share with you some pictures of projects that I worked on recently. I currently design for two stamp companies, and as of yesterday, I became a Design Team member and co-administrator for a brand new paper craft web site with over 5000 members and is growing rapidly! One of the stamp companies, called Molly Stamps, came up with two Wings on Things stamp sets and I remembered a picture of Avary that would be perfect for it! I made two samples with wings on Avary and the owner immediately wanted to use it on his packaging. So, here are some pictures of the actual journal and cards I made and the packaging that was just released a few days ago.

Pictured above are two cards made with the "small" set. The one on the right is the one featured on the packaging.

The project below is a journal using the large set. The other card featured on the back with the dragonfly was also made by me. Check out my name on the bottom of the package!

Here are the links to the companies I design for:
Hanna Stamps
Molly Stamps - You can see Avary's projects here. This company is very new and the guy who started it has no clue how to create or design cards. He's actually a comedian/actor who is shooting an M&M commercial today.

Boo!

Bewarrrrre...

Halloween

is just around the corner!

and so is

CHRISTMAS!

I know!!! it's SCARY! Instead of " B O O ! " it's more like " B O O H O O ! " Especially with the way the economy is right now! So, we're putting together again The Christmas Wish List. It will be like it worked before, each adult participating will be donating a certain amount into the Christmas Wish List pot. I (Esther) will be posting the details soon...

Rossol Family Vacation-Maui August 2008

Here we are in Maui. We finally decided to use our timeshare on Ka'anapali Beach -- the Marriott Ocean Club. Very nice and great for Jasmine and Chelsea. They can just walk over to Whaler's Village to shop and eat. The pools are very pretty and the location's perfect! We spent the day at the beach while their dad went golfing with his cousin, Frank. I took the picture of the girls above while they were taking a walk today. Behind them is Lanai.



We decided to vacation here because the Bible Boy from my wedding (almost 18 years ago!) planned to have his own wedding at the Ritz Carlton in Kapalua on August 2nd. There were 13 groomsmen and 9 bridesmaids -- gorgeous wedding!

This is a picture of Karl & Jen and some of the Sator-Rossol cousins. Karl's sister, Lisa (and the Flower Girl at my wedding) -- first girl on the left -- got married in June to her new husband -- first guy on the left. The rest are some of the cousins who happened to be around to take pictures with Karl & Jen.

We'll be here until Saturday, the 9th, then we go back home to Calif. The girls will start school September 2nd. Chelsea will be in 9th grade, Jasmine in 11th. Jasmine will continue to go to Esperaza High School, but Chelsea decided at the last minute to attend Whittier Christian High School.

Christian's HS Graduation

Christian Graduated from high school yesterday, June 11th, 2008! It was a long and tough road for him but he did it! We're so very proud of him. Watching my son march down with his cap & gown, and receiving his diploma was one of the happiest moments of my life! Time passes by too fast... It seemed as if it was just yesterday he was that little 3 year old boy... whom family members would ask if they could have him over for sleep overs (Norm, Theresa, & Nicole, and Fidel, Imee, & JR)! He's just as adorable now as he was back then.

Chris & Nicole


Congratulations Christian! We're so proud & love you so much!!!
