smith family pics

because we hold adins birthday party the friday after thanksgiving each year, we are usually able to take a family picture that weekend with aarons family. his youngest brother is away at school, so he hasn't made it home for the last 2 years, but aarons dad finds a way to get him in the picture. i thought this years was the best so far...notice the pictures in the background!
aarons mom picked maisys dress...this was getting ready to go in for our "photo shoot". we have gone one of aarons hotels for the last few years and our neighbor eric come along and takes our pictures!

a little cousin switch to get all of the girls together!

all of the smith grandkids:

our family...i am in heaven too!

nanny and poppy with us:

the 3 reasons my heart beats:

all of the kids again:

the littlest smith...still getting used to all of this!

our fearless leaders...nanny and poppy:

me and the "love of my youth". sizes change, hair styles change, clothes go out of style...but i plan to have pictures like this for many years to come!

who would have known 11 years ago that we would have this life, these kids, hotels to take pictures in...God is good and we thank him for it all.
