Christmas Eve

After a DELICIOUS and traditional Italian Christmas Eve dinner (with lots of seafood) that Mom & Mike knocked out of the park, Lola entertained us in the living room, running around in circles--and of course--eyeing the Santa bag FILLED to the brim with presents for you know who. She got to open one from Nonna & Papa--a beautiful doll that looks like her--and one from G.G.--an adorable outfit.

Later, we had cake & coffee with Uncle Rich & Aunt Janis--and then Mommy & Daddy got to go to a beautiful Christmas Eve mass at Sts. Peter & Paul in Oviedo. I love going to that church when we visit. It's so beautiful--and their choir was amazing! Just one of our many "nights out" we had while visiting thanks to our family!





One of the highlights of Lola's trip was getting to ride on G.G.'s walker.





As soon as she opened it, she went right over to her high chair and put her baby in it. G.G. LOVED that she knew exactly what to do with her baby. She has such a maternal instinct.

Just one of the many adorable outfits she received.
