Ho Ho Ho!

The holidays were so much fun this year. We had an early celebration with Will & Stefan. It was so great to have everyone together.




Auntie Gabelle was here for the week and it was so nice to spend time with her...we miss her already.





Then we got into the spirit by reading "Night before Christmas." It was a special recorded book that Auntie Va Va got for the boys with Nonna's voice recorded reading the story. Dennie was fascinated by it and rather than having her read it in person he wanted to hear the recording. Such a great gift!



We left out cookies, carrots, & celery for Santa and his reindeer....uh oh looks like someone else go to them first!



We tried to get some cute shots of the boys together....which was interesting



Somebody got caught being naughty! Sorry Simon...



Time to open presents!





Look what Uncle Claw got for Auntie VaVa :-)



Here is Dennie getting his first present from Santa & baby Jacks with his sweet smile...





It was wonderful to be together and experience the magic of Christmas. We are so lucky. Happy Holidays to all!

The only thing better than a close brother is lots of cousins! They will have great fun together as they go through the year. We're so glad you're in Chicago! Hope to see you often. Happy New Year!
