Big Family Christmas Get Together 2007


On Boxing day we had our family over to held us eat some of the food, then we sat in the garden for a while. This photo shows us that Savanna and Grandad have the same sized pot belly in profile.

Just some of the deserts to be enjoyed with our coffee. Gino was going round taking orders for all sorts of varieties of coffee. They have a very slick mean coffe machine. Assunta also contributed to some of our deserts and we all know what a great cook she is.

George with his very large bag. Santa was good to him.


Elise, Ronda and Renae are enjoying a laugh. They all grew up together and there are only nine months between the three girls.


Some of the second generation cousins. From left Nicholas, Breanna, Nadia, Savanna and Danial. What a beautiful bunch of children.








Nadia (Assunta and George's daughter)and Breanna (Lil and Gino's) who share an idential birthday are are very close.


Some of the cousins enjoying a catch up and laugh.

A great photo of Nicholas and Breanna who are Lil and Gino's children.






Savanna was the centre of attention, especially while she was going around and high fiveing all who wanted to join in. They only had to ask.




Elise and myself in a great shot.








Because we already had very filling Christams dinners at our respective homes with our children and grandchildren, Lil and Gino decided to have finger food only. I use that work "finger food" very loosly in this situation. Lil and Gino were very gracious this year to host our yearly get together at their home. Gino is top chef at La Dolce Vita in Park Road so our fare was not just "finger food." It was so very delicious and varied.


It was a very relaxed Christmas evening big family get together this year as you will see from the photos.
