End of a Great Week

Today we finished our first week of school.  This week also included some fun things!

Monday:  School:  see new books, supplies and other fun things
Tuesday: School and play with some friends (we <3 the Kelley boys)
Wednesday:  School and last night of summer Bible Study at church - LOVED this study!
Thursday: School, lake with TLC friends and TLC walk - through night! The kids are so excited!
Friday: School - celebrate the end of our first week with a sugary fun breakfast! Get prepared for our first TLC day on Monday. (Bags are packed!) Shelby headed off to her first official function with the Middle School of GCC. (Yikes!) The boys are celebrating with a rented Redbox Wii game!

Amazing.  Here we go for another school year! There are lots of changes in the air, but we know that God is faithful to provide ALL we need!

One last thing about today ... Happy Birthday to my oldest sis!
I love you, Paige! See you next month!
Since I don't have any recent pics of us together, here's one of us on my birthday last year!
Wish I were celebrating with you!

A New School Year

Well, here we go ... ready or not!

This week brought the start to a new school year.

I have tried to start a tradition of picture taking, measuring and weighing the kids on the first day of school!

We have had a pretty good start to our school year.  Looking forward to the start of our co-op on Monday!

List of kidos in my class! ;) They have the BEST principal!

Michael Cash - Kindergarten

Jackson Ford - 3rd Grade

William Grant - 5th Grade

Shelby Herr - 7th Grade

Our first day was prayed over a lot.  My sweet husband brought me Starbucks on his way to the airport! Lots of patience and grace to begin the year!

Happy BIRTH Day!

It has been a LONG time (5 1/2 years) since we have had a "baby" in the Kimball family!

Today that "no baby" streak was broken when

Noah was born at 2:23 PM

6 pounds 11 ounces

Another baby boy, what will Paw Paw do?

Congratulation to Danielle & Ben ...
