Victoria, Christmas Eve at her home with the presents from the two sets of grandparents and her aunts..as Santa will deliver his gifts by sled, and through the garden..you know..
"Merry Christmas 2012 and many blessings"
We're staying for the Christmas Holiday at my sweet daughter Sofia's house, who hosted it for the first time and did a marvelous job, in every sense..it be decorating her house, having us as guests and of course cooking. Her menu was turkey, a potato and shrimp salad, a delicious rice with coca cola she makes with dry mushrooms, stuffing, gravy and the sweet "camote" (sweet potato kind) I made. Great dessert and lots of cookies too....so much eating!!
Here is her lovely table, although it's simple because of how she was going to fill it up with food, lol.. she aslo had her in laws and her young Sil as well.
Here is some of the food. The turkey stuffing in the bowl with the rooster lid. The dishes were made by us at our former ceramic company and this set is for Victoria, our first grandgirl.
Our daughter Sofia with her daughter Cayetana 5. |
Alejandro so proud of his grandgirls. |
My darling Alejandro...we are so blessed to be another Christmas together and may our Lord grant us many, many more celebrations of His birth...it's what I mostly ask for C'mas.

Cayetana loves to make faces, she's really so funny!
Our hosts for Christmas 2012...Sofia, her husband and our granddaughters. |
Cayetana exausted from opening her three gifts from Santa, her other grandparents and aunts.. and two from us. |
Victoria and Cayetana opening their Barbie boat they got for both from Santa. |
Luv ya all!

ReplyDeletewish you a lovely season ahead..
I am trying to learn to use my iPad -- and I left you a comment. However, I think I did something wrong. Oops!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, what a wonderful time you must have had with your beautiful family.
I can't remember if I told you but I made the carrot salad from your mother. The yellow tomatoes were available, and it was really tasty, colorful, and a wonderful addition to the menu.
Be sure to thank your mother for sharing it with me.
Wonderful family pics, Fabby! Your grandgirls are ADORABLE! Your daughter did a marvelous job entertaining a large group -- sounds like she takes after you!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful post. I am so glad that you enjoyed such a fantastic Christmas with your loved ones. Gorgeous girls, like mother like daughter. Adorable kids.

It looks like you had a wonderful Christmas time, Fabby! A gorgeous family, beautiful place, and great food!
ReplyDeleteWishing you the best for 2013!
Lovely family, dishes, food, home...but my favorite picture is that little sleeping princess :)
ReplyDeleteFabby - those dishes are so whimsical-looking with the flowers and butterflies! They are darling! Your daughter and granddaughters are so lovely and I just love the name "Cayetana" - it's so Spanish sounding but it's also strong (so is Victoria, and so is Sofia, as a matter of fact - obviously, strong names run in your family!. Everything looks lovely, and I just bet the food was delicious, too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful family you are Fabby! & What a lovely and festive holiday you had with all your dear ones.
