second night celebration

we made it to nana's in time for hors d'oeuvres. i was surprised to see the old tree stand. it's beautiful, but i know it's very heavy and i think it's actually not easy to get the tree to stand straight in it. i wondered . . but i didn't ask! maybe some things are best left a mystery!

we played a game of catchphrase, a birthday gift to korrina from her cousins and aunt and uncle. it was great!

we had a delicious dinner of chicken cacciatore (povero morgana had her's sans tomato sauce . . !). for dessert there was christmas butter cookies and petit fours and biscotti.

(but where's greg? he had to stay home and go to work . . )

korrina worked on her knitting . . 

and finished a beautiful pair of long socks/stockings.



ahhh. finally opening gifts.

nonno's bottle of primotivo from dipaolo's wine store.

the big gift: the blanket from the home store at gosman's dock.






skype to the rescue . . greg had a gift from my sister and her family that he opened at home.
