Our Christmas day was so beautiful! Our boys woke up bright and early, eager to open presents and see if their stockings were stuffed.
We continued our tradition of giving each child three gifts, just as Jesus received from the magi. Dominic's gifts included a remote control car, a couple of costumes, and a Thomas the train addition for his set. Gabriel received bath toys, play pots and pans, and an adorable shopping cart. Of course, the rest of the family also showered them with gifts-- we have had a lot of FANTASTIC toys to plan with over the past week!
My husband makes incredible cinnamon rolls-- from scratch. I am a very lucky lady.
We found out the following day that Gabriel was suffering from a severe double ear infection. Please forgive this poor baby for not smiling through all of our paparazzi photos!
After a delicious brunch with my parents, we went over to Tom and Shannon's house for Christmas dinner with the Riccis. Our kids LOVE playing with their big cousins, and we couldn't have asked for sweeter cousins for our boys!
All of the kids always sing Happy Birthday to Jesus. They are seriously precious!
I love this photo of Gabriel blowing out the candles...
After celebrating with the Italians, we went back to my mom and dad's for another great dinner! This year was especially relaxing, because we were able to put our little angels to bed in their room, and enjoy the food and adult conversation. Of course, by then I am always so pleasantly exhausted, that I forget to take photos!
Merry merry Christmas!
Mankind is a great, an immense family... This is proved by what we feel in our hearts at Christmas.
