Christmas, Party 4 - Christmas Day

The kids were up early and were tortured having to wait for the grown ups to rise, but once they did, it was on. Frankie went straight to his favorite gift - a new guitar - and immediately started with some face melting solos. We're thinking more and more that he might be a southpaw.


Phoebe asked Santa for makeup so we pretty much had to get her some little kid makeup. There's a six year old girl on our block that's an Avon Lady, so it was no big deal.


Frankie with his new brown bear slippers from MiMi and Pop Pop.


Hamming it up with Nana and Aunt Jean.


Frankie gives the zoom zoom mat a test drive.


Phoebe got lots of clothes.


Frankie got this cool car from his pals Sam and Otis, who we met a few days before in Trenton at DeLorenzo's for Tomato Pie while the grandparents babysat.


Christmas dinner feast. The look on Phoebe's face is because we just told her she had to eat that entire bowl of coleslaw.


After dinner with Georgine and Uncle George.



We tried to take a few family photos, but Phoebe was more interested in goofing around.



This last shot isn't from Christmas day, but it had to fit in somewhere because you just don't leave out pictures of candy cane shaped soft pretzels that your parents get you in South Philly.
