Christmas and New Year's

We had a lovely time opening presents but during our ceremony we got the sad news that Gigi wasn't well and couldn't have us all for Christmas dinner. So Tia B and Uncle El went back to NYC later in the day, and instead of our usual large family gathering, we headed for a bit of low-key holiday time with Aunt Christine and family, and met up with Gigi and Grandad the next day.

Present opening in South Orange:

After a few days in Tivoli, we went back to South Orange and had our usual New Year's dinner with our good friends the Cardiellos. Happy New Year!
