Monaco’s Royal Family hosted the principality’s official Christmas ceremony at the Royal Palace in Monaco today.

Prince Albert II, Princess Caroline and Princess Stephanie (L) played Santa’s elves to a group of Monagesque children, giving presents to all the kids who had attended. You might have to look closely at the photo above to see Santa Claus behind Prince Albert and Princess Caroline.

The royals turned out in support of the charity event to benefit the Princess Grace Foundation. Prince Albert was in simple tuxedo, nothing too rock and roll there.

It’s been a while since I last saw the royal family of Monaco together in one place. So these photos of their celebrations of Monaco’s National Day, November 19, 2008, are such a treat! Looks like everybody was there, too.
The celebrations included the annual Thanksgiving Mass, awarding of medals at the Prince’s Palace, Army Parade, and an evening at the Opera. Prince Albert, head of the Monagesque royal family, was dashing as always at all the events.
