Christmas 2015 Photos


Here are a few photos of our house, ready for
Christmas 2015:

Our antique feather tree with vintage glass ornaments



Instead of a big tree, we decorated a few small ones in different rooms.




























Here's a lantern from my son's wedding.  We use it every Christmas to remember the wonderful day he married sweet Abba!!

 Snowmen!

I knitted Christmas stockings for all of us this past year. Everyone chose their own colors - nice:)

 Nutcrackers keep watch on the piano.


Here are our favorite Christmas cookies - Gingerbread!!


My mother loved this ceramic Christmas tree - it comes out every year.

Here's my kitchen door:

The Italian Feast of the 7 Fishes prep:

Our Christmas Eve Seafood Feast was amazing:  fried calamari, monk fish/crab salad, baked stuffed clams, fried orange roughy, broiled shrimp and scallops, linguini aglia e olio, all thanks to Tony and his expertise in the kitchen!
