What's Christmas day with out football?! The boys played football in the backyard at Kathy and Jon's while dinner was prepared.

Day After Christmas

We are spoiled with 80 degree weather. Marcello's parents have been down from Michigan since Thanksgiving. They tease the family up there with pictures of us on the beach weekly!

Christmas Eve!

While I am waiting for the kids to get tired enough for bed - it's hard to go to sleep when Santa is on his way, I thought I would post a couple of pictures from tonight at church, Christmas Eve Candlelight Service. I know the pictures are small but if you click on a picture it will enlarge. I do a good job of hiding my belly in pictures and some of you were disappointed to not be able to see it in our Christmas cards so when we got home Marcello and I took one just for you (with Makayla, too)!

AWANA Christmas Party!

Francesco & Alexiss

Makenzie & Emma

Victoria waits patiently to open her gift!

Makenzie got what she wished for - a 4th grade workbook! She told me later she was sooo excited because she was, "so grateful!"

Franceso tore into his wrapping paper as fast as he could! He got an addition to his Hotwheel track and an Enzo Ferrari.

Victoria loved her doll . . . put would have prefered to take home the real baby that was at the party.

Buscemi's

Here are a few updated pictures of the fam. It's been a while since I have posted pics. Sorry!
