The Shafer Christmas

We did it! And, it wasn't so bad. For more than 25 years, the Shafer Family has always celebrated Christmas on Christmas Day at lunch time. With our families growing so rapidly, we decided it was time to start a new tradition - having our Christmas Gathering on another day besides Christmas. We gathered at the Parsons' on December 23rd for lunch. Everyone was present and seemed to enjoy the afternoon as a family. After good food and fellowship we took "family photos" which was fun. Here is our immediate family - Me, Mom, Allison, Austin, Dad, and Miles. Shadow is missing, but we'll share his Christmas picture in a few days!
