Impromptu photo in the backyard… CHEESE!

it is so hard to find time to get everyone in one place, dressed nicely, smiling, and with a proper background. We did not achieve the best background, but in the moment, it’s what worked. This late in the game it made more sense to get Christmas cards out without the photo, but with a link to send friends and family. There were a few cards that I waited to send out with a photo for some folks who might not want to navigate the internet (and they only get the family photo, not the individuals), but for the rest of you, here is the lot!
