The day after Christmas Chad had to work, so me and Carter hung out for the day and did a little shopping and then picked up Chad to head to Idaho. Love hanging with my little man.
The brothers came home too and we all got to share our presents with eachother and mom and dad. This year, Jordan and I went together to buy equipment to transfer old VHS family videos to a digital file. We shared the cost and Jordan spent alot of his break going through every tape! We put them all on a hard drive. She was slightly confused when she opened it but after we explained she was excited! We had a good time watching some later on!
The next day was Cousin Game day! Lots of Serena & Cindy's family gathered at my parents house to play games. Ben smoked brisket and we all brought snacks to share. There is never a shortage of food at DeGiulio gatherings. It was so great to catch up with cousins and actually PLAY with them.
It was double the fun watching all of my kids play with my cousins kids! It made me SO happy and brought back so many fun memories of getting to play with my cousins at christmas!
The sisters held down the kitchen!
And dad pulled out the hardest puzzle in the world!!
Games, foosball, ping pong, puzzles and lots of chatter and laughter kept us all busy all day!
Love this big italian family of mine and the priorities we make to keep in touch. There's LOTS of love to go around and after this tough year of loss and hard things, we all gained a new appreciation and love for each other.
