For as long as I can remember, we have gotten together the weekend before Christmas with my mom's side of the family. I tried to nail down a year that we started this tradition and everyone just says that they can't remember NOT doing it. The group has grown as spouses have joined the mix (balancing out the estrogen to testosterone ratio) and in the last eight years we have added 7 kiddos. It is always so fun to be together!
We spend most of the time eating. We wake up to large pots of coffee and lots of laughter. Hey there are a lot of Italian women in my family, so constant talking WITH OUR HANDS was inevitable...
It does not feel like Christmas unless we have this time together!
We love you all and are so thankful to have you in our lives!
We look forward to many more Christmas' together.
