New Stuff

Hi All!
It has been such a fun, busy summer. I have not blogged much about it, but I've loved living it. Kip and I got to celebrate our sister and brother's graduation, take a few little vacations, grill, go to the pool, try some new restaurants. We celebrated Kip's 25th birthday and our 3rd wedding anniversary. I have lived off of iced coffee and fresh peaches like I end up doing every year. There are lots of things I love about summer. But fall has always been my favorite, and I'm excited about the coming change in season.

It feels like there are lots of new things in the air. Lots of friends having babies. A new season for Grace Midtown, our church here in Atlanta. More personally, Kip has a new job! It is such a perfect provision from the Lord... he is teaching 11th grade in a new school with a position that is now FULL time (praise the Lord!) It's about an hour north of where we are now. He just started this week and already feels so supported by the staff. After 3 years of him waiting for this teaching opportunity, we feel that this is exactly where God wants us to be. We are in the process of buying a house closer to where he'll be working. My prayer is that our eyes will be open to see where God is working and that Kip's workplace and our new neighborhood will be places to invest spiritually. We couldn't be more excited and grateful.

Here are a couple pictures of Kip's first day... I don't think I've been in a high school since I was in high school and it was exciting to be there! There's just something about a new school year. I wanted to visit with all of the kids and tell them to enjoy every day of it. Maybe a school nurse will be somewhere in my future??



Don't think I could be any more proud of Mr. Wright! What a natural.

Change is coming, and it is always a little bittersweet, but so exciting. I especially love knowing that whatever ups and downs are ahead, we have a Good Father who protects and keeps us anchored. Because of Him it's all good. :)
