Meet the new part of our family - Kayla, Kendra, Randy and Debbie!
We had the pleasure of having dinner together tonight. They were so cute and creative in telling us too. After dinner, they went out to the car to "show" us something. They came in with a Little Tykes wagon and a gift bag with a baby book and an Ohio state onesie with matching bib and booties! They turned to us and said, "Well, we don't know how to tell you this, but let's have a baby!" It was one of the craziest moments of my life! I am sure there are more to come...

We are thrilled...Joshua is screaming for joy that he will have a new little playmate..

I couldn't be happier for you. God is good and blesses us in his own time. How amazing to be able to watch your baby and your church grow from the same starting time, ha ha.
