Teresa Giudice Had Melissa Gorga by Her Side During Her First Christmas at Home Without Husband Joe
The #RHONJ moms brought their families together for the holidays.
The holiday season is all about family, and no one knows that better than Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga. The Real Housewives of New Jersey sisters-in-law and their famiglie had the chicest Christmas Eve together ever.
Don't believe us? Well, just look at how luxe the ladies look with their all-dolled-up brood in front of the gorgeous Christmas tree at the casa de Gorga.
Teresa and Melissa, along with her husband, Joe Gorga, also struck a pose with their kids individually.
The families looked just as festive in their respective holiday cards for this year.
The cousins also got in some quality time, a.k.a. "Christmas Eve shenanigans," with some fun arcade games.
Things continued to look merry and bright for the families on Christmas Day.
Dina Manzo even stopped by the Giudices' house to celebrate with the family and her goddaughter, Audriana Giudice.
Of course, Teresa's husband Joe Giudice was absent from the festivities, since he has been serving his 41-month prison sentence since March. As we saw last season of RHONJ, one of the first things Teresa did upon her return home from prison on December 23, 2015 was spend Christmas Eve with the Gorgas. Teresa told E! News in November that she planned to spend Christmas Eve with her brother, sister-in-law, niece, and nephews again this year. "I'm not hosting Christmas Eve this year. I'm going to my brother's again, because it's just us," she shared. "Being home is just kind of going to be sad, so I didn't want to be home."
