Every year we spend time in St. Louis after Christmas, visiting with my husband's family and exploring the eccentric and beautiful city. Our kids have the best time playing with their cousins, there are now 15 kids (with another due this month!) We are always especially excited to spend time with the Miller family, since they live out east and we don't see them nearly enough. As a Christmas gift, I took pictures of the Millers at the Missouri Botanical Gardens, but truly I was the one blessed by being able to spend some special time with this loving family.

Little Ezra is just nine months old, but he can totally hang with his older siblings - I love that we could take some shots of all the kids walking together!

Trying to get five kids to be happy in one picture is never an easy task, even if you know them all well. We won over baby Ezra by singing the theme song to "Super Why," one of the boys' favorite shows. He's got the power, the power to read...

Josh has long been known to joyfully throw his kids in the air, there is an infamous picture of him tossing Nora a little TOO high... We had a lot of fun trying to recreate that crazy shot!

I love this family so much, and am thankful for their godly example. I wish we lived closer, being near the Millers brings me such joy!
