Day After Christmas (picture overload)

We have had an Uboldi Day After Christmas Party for a while now.  Its always fun and really mellow.  This year was no exception.   

It was super fun to have the shindig at Abuela's new place.  It so spacious and open, plus she loves it!  You can't beat that.  We had Tortas Fritas (Argentine scones), Pasta Frola, Ham and Cheese Empanadas, Artichoke Dip, Fruit Salad and Mate Cocido.  Everything was DELICIOUS! 

 Lots of picture taking took place......


 Cute cousins played together perfectly!  So fun to see them all.  We don't always get to see Dylan and he is getting so big!  (Maria, Preston and Marissa have been sick, so they didn't come :( ) 

 Abuela and Otis.  Oti was freaking out and we didn't hear him.... poor baby!  
Abuela was feeling bad for him.  She's a softy when it comes to her grandkids ;)


 The big girls playing and being too cool for pictures.  

 Handsome Dylan


 Gabi making Otis laugh.  Gabi is like her mom, they both love the babies in the family.

This little sassy pants is beautiful!!! Her and Milli are either best of friends making mischief or little stinkers to each other.  I'm sure they will be good friends when they grow up. 

 Otis getting lots of love from Aunt Amy


 More pics....

 Marcos feeding Otis and being a cute uncle.  He is always so sweet and has a very big heart!

 How cute is she?!?  Time for presents!  Abuela spoiled us.  Abuela chipped in for our Cherry Hill passes this summer... summer can't come soon enough! 

Awwww!  Precious!  :) 

 The tradition of Christmas jammies.  The kids love the cozy jams and that is always the first thing they open and immediately put it on.  Three grand kids missing in this picture. 

Then, the group hug. 

There was also some intense wrestling with all the kids against Esteban and later Amy.  I didn't get any pics of that but it was fun to watch.  Esteban won't admit it, but the kids gave him a run for his money ;) 

It was a very nice evening.  Relaxing, fun, loving, yummy, entertaining and always a good time! 


ps.  Dave was there but apparently camera shy :)

What a fun way to spend boxing day.
I'm glad it was a good time with the cuzzies.
I'm also glad your mother is liking her new place.
Nothing like hanging out with family.
It's the best.

So great to see pictures from the party. I hate that I don't have the memories though. It was a rough Christmas this year. :(
