Teresa Giudice and family are ready to welcome Christmas as they took pictures for a Christmas card. On Thursday, December 24, just a day after she's released from prison, the star of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" and her husband Joe as well as their daughters, Gia, Gabriella, Milania and Audriana, glammed up for the photo shoot.
Wearing matching black outfits with touches of red, they were all smiles while posing in front of a Christmas tree. Some behind-the-scenes pictures obtained by PEOPLE show the reality TV star getting her hair makeup done before the photo session.
A source says the couple's daughter Milania helped Teresa pick her outfit. "Everybody was excited they were going out," the source says. "It was a bit of a circus with all the kids the night before Christmas and then trying to get them all organized and ready at the same time and Teresa getting all primped and ready."
Teresa got a brand new Lexus SUV which cost $95,000 as a surprise gift from her husband when she returned home on Wednesday. Explaining the fancy homecoming gift, her attorney James J. Leonard, Jr. tells PEOPLE, "She needs a car. End of story - just like anyone else who needs a car."
Teresa served nearly a year in Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut, for fraud charges. Her husband Joe will begin his 3.5-year sentence in March 2016 at the Fort Dix Federal Correctional Institution in New Jersey.
