Christmas Eve

This Christmas my Mom was in town, so it was a special time for the kids. We were able to spend a relaxing evening with good friends and my mom. We had a great dinner, Carl made homemade chicken parm. and the kids got to open one gift. They chose one that Nana had sent. They also got to put out the reindeer food and the cookies they made for Santa. We had a little scare when Carlo had pneumonia a few weeks before Christmas but we were able to have a healthy holiday this year! Thank goodness.

Carlo assuring that the food was spread out enough for the reindeer to find...he is so funny.
