Boxing Day 2016

We went down to Bellevue today to celebrate with Phil's side of the family --offspring S, E, and T, seen here; E's husband and children Z and B (seen often in our journals, but not here); and S's longtime friend D. (Phil blipped the color version of this scene.)

After that alphabet soup paragraph, all you really need to know is that here is a captured moment in time of Phil and his children! Not shown are Labrador retrievers Osa and King, who enjoyed their afternoon walk with us.  
Much good food, lovely gifts, and laughter and reminiscing filled the all- too-brief hours together, as our Yule family gatherings came to an end.

Now to catch up on all the holiday cards not yet sent...
