This beautiful family ...


... began with these two people.


They added five more ...


... plus four more (so far) ...


... and now they're up to 16 and counting! As the clan matriarch said as I was shooting this particular shot, "We are so blessed."


Now new families are getting underway.


I was glad to see that these responsible young adults haven't outgrown being silly.


Otherwise, how would the next generation be prepared to carry on that tradition?


L. O. V. E.
Multiplied times 16!


Thanks for braving the chilly morning, Christensen Clan. It was truly my pleasure to be turned into a popsicle during our time together! May you always draw life-giving warmth, strength, love and joy from one another.

If either of them falls down,
one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
and has no one to help them up.
Also, if two lie down together,
they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?
Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
(Hmmmm ... I wonder whether a cord of 16 strands can be broken at all??!)
Ecclesiastes 4:10-12
