Xmas Eve Eatfest with the DGWs

I spent Xmas Eve in Jersey with Katie and Semmesey and fam.

We started with a lovely Mass.



And then descended upon Katie's Aunt Denny's home for her annual Xmas Eve Italian Seafood Feast.

Appetizers included mounds and mounds of fried shrimp...




Some octupus-y seafood concoction...



Cheeses, meats, and olives...



Shrimps cocktail...



And lots of drinky.




All the little nieces played games.




And then there were more shrimps...




More kids...



Linguine with clam sauce...



Eggplants parmigiana...



Bacon wrapped scallops...



Pasta with stuffed calamari...




And some yummy fish thing...



I love Italians!




After dinner the kids got to open presents.






It was adorable.



I love Christmas!





Merry Christmas to all!
