With the bright sun and serious shadows, it didn&#8217;t turn out great, but we were so thankful to have all of these people here.  Front step is my niece Liz&#8217;s wife McKenzie holding nine-month-old twin Coleman, me, Meg, her daughter Hope, and Hope&#8217;s boyfriend Marcos; second row is Liz holding Coleman&#8217;s twin Jack, Charlie, Andrew, June, &amp; Jenny; third row is Amy, Jeff&#8217;s sister-in-law Cinnamon, theri daughter Allison, Al&#8217;s husband Logan, &amp; Addie, sitting behind them is Mason &amp; Jeff&#8217;s brother Dennis, standing are Andy, Adam Meg&#8217;s husband Mike, Jeff bending down, and you can barely see Elise and really can&#8217;t see her boyfriend Brock standing behind her at all.
