Some of these photos are blurry, and I’ll try to find better versions. And there’s tons, I couldn’t put all of them here.

Several of my friends and family members passed away this year. And way too many people inbtwn the ages of 21 to 34. Christmas doesn’t feel as magical. I didn’t tell many of my family members about my friends passing because we lost 4 this year (we have a big family, it comes with the territory). With a few recently passing. I’m thinking about you this holiday season. I love you all.

Christmas photos I found, credit goes to the original owner(s).
