Christmas Craft Fair

Very timely to pull off our largest Thanksgiving ever and then follow it with organizing the Children's Christmas Bazaar this year. While I was nervous to follow in Christine Pitcole's footsteps (the Martha Stewart of event organizing), in the end things came together nicely, and I've already got some ideas for next year.

The Dream Team of the Fair
These ladies manned 6 tables of crafts and assisted 66 children ages 2 and older make Marshmallow Snowmen, Cork Reindeers, Pasta Angels, Candy Cane Mice, Puzzle Snowflakes, and frost Christmas Cookies. Thank Sant Nick for them!


While I was busy running around making sure the Christmas music was still ringing, people were happy etc. Luca joined zio Marco, zia Valeria and brother Alberto in their family photo. 


Getting our kids to look happy was a challenge this year. 


 Luca looks slightly more depressed here, and Ella, not much better. I know, the Santa could have been a little more genuine. 

Tomorrow we go get our tree and then the Christmas spirit will be full on!
