Family portrait

The culdesac where I live has transcended itself. It is no longer just where I live; it has truly become a home. We now call it the cool-de-sac, and I don’t know if I’ll ever live in as cool a community again. We have family dinners every Sunday night, starting the meals with our highs and lows of the week (or an arbitrary time period), and an intro question, varying from the funniest thing you know about Sam Streeter (one of the cool-de-sac members), to your favorite superhero. On almost any other night, someone is cooking up a big pot of something, with enough for everyone and anyone. On a cold afternoon, there is usually a fire going either inside or out, with a large group of friends, and you never know when an impromptu dance party is going to start up. With the term coming to a close and most everyone graduating from the cool-de-sac and entering the ‘real’ world, we decided to get a family photo.
