We were joined by John and Kathleen Sharp and their children, as well as Naett.
Real men carve meat.
Lots of food. Azia likes the red plates.
Elda and Clark enjoy Lettie. The next generation of photographers--Maysa isn’t hesitant to snap a few pics.
Christina dressed up, choosing attire to match the lampshades.
The high point of the evening was Michael’s and Eldon’s rendition of “O Holy Night.”
The first year none the “original generation” appeared in the New Pajama Photo. From left, Kyle, Kenzie, Daij, Jenna, Courtney, Israel, Maysa, Gage. Front row: Azia, Ahni, Bryce, Zoran. Not shown: Keilana, Lettie.

Thanksgiving weekend is the traditional time for a trip to the Stump Ranch for Christmas Trees. This year, in addition to Mike & Valerie, Dev & Christa, Todd & Gwen, Eldon & Christina, and Michael & Deva (and kids, kids, kids) we were joined by Pete and Dorothy von Holtum (and Billy and Katie).
It was real winter this year--lots and lots of snow.
Bryce and Eldon scout for the right tree.
Jenna keeps her ears warm.
Michael and Deva and Gage got right to work and found a great tree.
