Christmas 2017

For the first time in I don't know how long, the entire family was together. The Taylors came from Hawaii, though Meagan was sick and quarantined for the first part of the holiday. The Youngs came from Arizona a couple of days before Christmas, and the Hastings arrived Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve dinner was prepared for 26 people and the seating arrangements had to be creative. On the day we enjoyed Christmas brunch with the extended Taylor family at Jeff and Amy's. The rest of the day we relaxed.

There were several more days of fun, but that's all for now.
