“God rest you merry, {gentlemen including Bill}”. An old fashioned way of saying, “May God keep you all in perfect tranquility and contentment.” (Quoted from “Sing in Exultation” by Jonathan Landry Cruse.)
So Merry Christmas in the old-fashioned sense and a happy new year to you.

Bill,

And the same to you and your sister, Vito.
