Zoey & Makenna are "15"! 5/30/2009



Can't believe it has been 15 years since I went to the Hospital in the middle of the night with Chris and Alissa (14 months at the time) and 45 minutes later our family grew from 3 to 4. We were all very surprised to have Zoey come that fast and at 3 1/2 weeks early. But the Lord works miracles everyday. At 5lbs 5 oz and 16 inches long, Zoey and Mom were back home by 6pm that same day. She was the size of a Water Baby (doll), or a sack of flour and perfect in every way. She came into this word in a hurry and and has been hurrying ever since.



Alissa was really excited to be a big sister, however I am sure she thought we brought her home a new toy!


Makenna & Zoey (6/1994)


Zoey & Makenna(5/30/2009)


Meanwhile, we received a call from Chris's Brother Ryan, who informed us that his wife Wendy was in labor with their little girl, Makenna, who was born on that same day ( 18 hours apart) They have been tight ever since.
They celebrated their birthday's together this year, like every other year in the past. This year they planned it all themselves and spent the night with 4 of their close friends at Makenna's and then went boating in Ryan's Boat to the lake. Ryan, the brave one that he is, was surrounded by water and females, 10 + wife to be exact. They had a great time and then came back to our house for dessert. I am amazed at how these girls have grown and how much they love each other and how proud we are of them and who they have become.
