Festa!

On Sunday we celebrated E.'s Birthday

with a party for all the Italian family:

16 adults + 8 kids (from 3 to 11 years)

When we woke up we had a nice surprise:

first snow in the village

(Really early indeed)

Last year kids had fun in the garden

playing football

and we had an aperitif on the terrace

enjoying a really warm Autumn sun.

I was a bit nervous

so I put up my alarm clock at 6 o'clock

but I forgot to put hours' hands backwards

and I didn't realized until I went out in the street

and watched at the church clock.......
