Another Spectacular Christmas
Monkey was so excited to wake up to "more presents from Santa?!"
Her big gift was a portable DVD player with a collection of 12 classic Disney movies
New Barbie Phone (just like Mama's iPhone) :)
Shopping carriage complete with groceries!
The Ariel Tub Doll
Dress Up Clothes!
and then the rest of the kiddos joined us and the opening frenzy began!
When Grammy and Papa arrived, it was another opening frenzy (overboard again!)
and then Mimi and Papa and Aaron arrived and our group was complete!
We started with Christmas cocktails, hot crab dip and filets wrapped in bacon
and then we enjoyed a traditional Italian Christmas Dinner
Our first course was gnocchis that my parents got at Bella in Medford
After that is was Pork Crown Roast, Cornbread and Black Cherry Stuffing, Grammy's Scalloped Potatoes, Green Beens with Bacon and Shallots, Salad and Parker House Rolls
MY Clark Griswold :)
Obligatory Family Shots before Dessert
and Mr. Aaron blessed us with the most delicious homemade rum cake (he is quite the baker!)
We also had Mum's decadent Christmas Cookies, Gram's Custard Pie, My chocolate peppermint dessert and plenty more
After the feeding frenzy and the last guest had left...we settled in for one more showing of Christmas Vacation...we just can't get enough of that movie!
Merry Christmas to you my friends!
