Birthday and School


We have a 10 year old girl now!
She helps make icing
Helps Ice the cake

And shows off the finished product


Toes painted





She chooses bowling for the day's event

Picks a ball

And we bowl.  She and Ben got bumpers down.
Poor Noah didn't 
26 kids in each class.
Ben's class is more even.
Checking out class lists
Yes, 20 boys and 6 girls in Kristin's class.
Poor teacher.

Dinner choice - Pizza of course.
Ben sits with me-
Kristin with Megan
The finished product
All in one breathe
A coke with her name on it-

Beautiful day for a birthday!
And one of the last pictures of naked mountains.
2 weeks later, they are covered in snow.
First day of school-
The day after the birthday
3rd grade
Noah started the next week
7th grade
5th grade
View from my window
Cupcakes for Kristin's class- a French tradition-
Morning view out the bathroom window
Noah's school
Middle school is college here
And this is how I spend my days now. This is in my classroom.
Each color for something different.  Phone with dictionary.
Giant water bottle.  Great teacher.
Head doesn't hurt every day....
Pray for learning and speaking French!  Pray for the kids in school - every day is different- some have teasing, some are wonderful.  We like all the teachers and are thankful for nice classmates too.
