This was such a magical Christmas! Grace and Andrew's eyes were filled with wonder from the moment they saw all of their presents under the tree until they closed their eyes tonight after listening to The Polar Express. Santa Claus certainly spoiled our sweethearts this year. He left tons of presents under our Christmas tree, and we had so much fun opening them all first thing this morning. Grace was overjoyed with all of her Disney princess gifts, and Andrew loved his Yankees baseball bat, assortment of Toy Story items, and his 1st Jets jersey! Dan spoiled me this year with a gorgeous pair of pearl/diamond earrings from Tiffanys:-) At 10:00 LuLu, Pop, Nana, Grandpa, and Aunt Dana arrived for brunch. As we sat around the table, I felt truly blessed to be surrounded by the best gifts I've ever received... my family! We had a memorable morning together.
After the children played with their new toys for a little while, we headed to Mom and Dad Colonna's to continue the celebration. Once we got there, we had fun opening even more presents from Nana, Grandpa, and Aunt Dana. Uncle Frank, Anthony, Rachel, James, and Jenna joined us for a delicious prime rib dinner. We had a wonderful time together, and were happy that Nanny, Poppy, and Vito were able to join us for dessert. Dana and Mom C. made a delicious assortment of Christmas cookies. We had such a Merry Christmas, and we look forward to more festivities tomorrow!
