christmas eve, 2009

in the better late than never category: here's the best of our annual christmas eve team photos. i did not crop to a square, because the wonderful, crazy painting to the right is by stuart's uncle don, who died the week before christmas at an amazingly ripe old age. he loved to create, and took up painting in his 80's. we are lucky enough to have an original! click on the picture for a closer look.

and yes, i look concerned, because i am the camera operator, and still have not excelled at the timer function ;-)
