The Dalrymples 2015

An old picture from a family Christmas photo shoot in 2010. We haven't taken Christmas pictures since then.

Jim became a published author this year. He enjoys having his photography displayed in cool exhibits, and he thinks his children are very funny, especially Rachel. He thinks she is the most 

hilarious.

Anne is still flying a lot and wishes that she lived in Aruba where she would fulfill her dream of being a professional kite surfer.

Jimmy and Laura: Jimmy’s dream came true this year when William Shatner tweeted at him. He also was recognized by the president of France (as being that one reporter in the massive crowd of other reporters at the Global climate change talks). Laura is a flight attendant and a very aggressive Los Angeles driver. At least she was before the two of them sold their car (due to their deeply held belief that cars are the root of all evil).

Meggan enjoys taking pictures of Ryan H. in his convincing punk Santa Claus costume.

Ashley and Dave like their two already born kids and also their one almost born kid. Marla (already born kid) owns an imaginary pink house and Kellen (other already born kid) enjoys saying very speedy prayers. Everyone else also enjoys these prayers.

Shelly enjoys watching Rylan’s soccer games where he dominated all competition in order to become the All-Star of the All-Star team.

Ryan D. and Sheri got married this year. (It rained.) They enjoy being Seattle pizza aficionados and dream of running a miniature organic farm full of miniature animals.

This year Carrie and Josh took care of Scotty (their son who *spoiler alert* will one day grow up to invent the transporter which will redefine space travel). Coming soon: Their second child.

Mary enjoys speaking in hyperbole and being a pop culture expert. Her interests include anything that (actual genius) Lin-Manuel Miranda likes. Follow her on twitter @marydal23.

Rachel is good at asking interesting questions (commentary from Mary: More like you’re good at interrogating people endlessly), dancing (freestyle only), and writing family Christmas newsletters.

Chloe cares about BYU sports and getting free t-shirts on campus. She also loves Disney. In other words, she is a BYU freshman.

Davy has lots of friends. You might hear him described as a “cool guy” with a good sense of humor.
