Congratulations Multiplied By Two

Emily and I spent a wonderful Sunday chatting with each other and road tripping to St. Louis.

Along the way we picked up extra family members to join in the fun. 
Thanks, Grandpa and Sara, for going with us.


And it was definitely fun!!

The Simms family has added a new generation to the family tree.


Meet Owen.
Isn't he a handsome fellow?

He was welcomed to the world in September by my niece and her husband.
They are a beautiful family.






And just in case things weren't wonderful already,
a few short weeks after Owen's arrival
we welcomed the second great grandchild to the family.





Meet Maggie.
She's a petite little bundle of sweetness.

Her mother and father were thrilled to meet their firstborn.
And so were we.




We enjoyed a day visiting with family
and celebrating the arrival of cousins
who will grow up sharing a very special bond.



the proud mothers (who also happen to be sisters)

Thanks, girls, for sharing these first days with us!
We love you and are so proud of you all!


I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him.
1 Samuel 1.27
