Next we have Christmas EVE 2009. It was our 2nd year hosting and we are pro's at it by now. It is about 40 people from Steve's side of the family. There's fish, pasta and all that good stuff.
Here is the beginning of the night and the first of 14 bottles of wine for the night
Luckily we are able to seat 24 in our dinning room - believe me its the most use this room gets all year.
The kids all sit in the kitchen - it's wild and crazy but surprisingly very orderly.
Sophia and Vincent sharing a moment over a bowl of grapes. They sat there for about 15 min. just eating grapes
The kids all waiting patiently for a gift....
Mass hysteria as gifts are opened:
Sam extremely excited over Uno Flash:
The annual reading of How the Grinch stole Christmas - courtesy of Uncle Robb.
Sam again excited - this time over the outfit Aunt Rosalie made for her American Girl doll.
2 cousins - drunk as skunks - Anthony is eating a tag off of those PJ's on his lap......Steve pay attention!
Stay tuned for Christmas. I am in the midst of getting ready for Anthony's baptism so there is lots going on but I will get Christmas up before Valentines day...lol
