Rosemary and Mamma Rachel
Christmas day was a wonderful celebration of Christ's birth. We woke up, opened presents, had a delicious brunch that my mother prepared--breakfast Strada's, fruit, coffee, hot chocolate, and sweets. The entire family was here...Mom, Dad, Daniel, Elin, Lilly, Ida, Megan, Jed, Peter, David, Betty, Andrew, Erin and of course us (Rachel, Jon, Rosemary, Esther, Eleanor). It was quite a crowd. A happy crowd. We ate a lot of food, took some walks in the NJ weather that should have been much colder but wasn't, opened more presents, ate more food, drank some wine, and played a couple games. Megan and Sean Bremner joined us after breakfast for the family festivities. It was quite a day. I'm going to share just a couple pictures from our family Christmas day. I hope you all had a wonderful blessed day as well.
Jon and baby Eleanor. Why give presents to babies anyway? All she wanted to do was eat the wrapping!

I thought this picture was so cute. Eleanor is in love with Sean. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas.
