Baby Kimball arrives!


Lilyana Bechtel Kimball arrived on January 4, 2010. She weighed 9lbs. 14oz. and 21 1/2 " long. She's adorable. Mommy and baby are doing well.
Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
Psalms 127:3

Hunter's chocolate covered graham crackers




I can't describe these adequately enough. All natural and delicious!
Thanks, Hunter for sharing your baking skills with us.

Alex's b-day


Happy birthday, dad! October 18,2009 The red velvet cupcake looks good.

Milk carton "gingerbread" houses



Elliot & I built "gingerbread" houses together. Elliot's precise tile cutting out of graham crackers was impressive. Hunter liked eating the left over candy and judging the skittles tasting contest.

Sweet Grandma Eggleston


Elliot is the "pretend grandson" to Mrs. Eggleston. They met when our church went to play bingo with the residents. She is such a sweet lady. We have enjoyed visiting her and getting lots of hugs.


Kolar caroling


In December, the Kolar family surprised us with their famous Christmas caroling visit. Thank you for sharing your joy and yummy zucchini bread too!

more roof shoveling



An icicle stuck to Alex's hat inside the house! It's so..... cold here. Brrrr......!


Snowmaha! shoveling the roof






Alex risked life and limb to shovel our roof because it's leaking into the living room. The snow was about 24 inches deep in some parts. Not to mention the foot thick sheet of ice covering the entire south side. The icicles are impressive, but scary looking.
