It has been a tradition for this family to get together on Christmas Day for many years.

Cerwin’s dad didn’t think it was Christmas if he didn’t get to see each of his children and grandchildren on this holiday. We continue that tradition in his memory.

Each family brought two dishes.

Leslie’s (our niece) bread Santa Claus was not only cute, but also delicious.

We set up chairs and tables for 38 people – and that is how many were here.

Mark and Diane, this picture is for you.

Siblings: Crystal and Bryan – children of Elvin and Pat.

Our granddaughter Jenna was pleased to hold Bryson (son of Bryon and Leslie) for a while. He is a happy, contented baby and seemed okay with being held by many people during and after the meal.

Family meals create great memories.
