They are wearing masks this year but will get to interact with their entire grade at recess, etc. Parents are even allowed in the school this year! Woohoo! Hopefully everyone will stay safe and healthy and we’ll have the best school year yet.

Meet the Teacher!

August 11, 2021

We had meet the teacher on Monday and all went well! Samantha has Mrs. Jones who is going to be FANTASTIC I think! Both Spencer and Maxwell’s teachers are very young and new – I’ll take eager new teachers with fresh ideas any day! Spencer has Miss Campbell and Maxwell has Miss Rogers. My crew was looking sharp to go see their classrooms!

While seeing your class and teacher are nice, seeing friends is the best part!

Although, the very best part of the day was the epic lemonade stand that Maxwell and his friend Jack set up! They are trying to save money to buy an underwater scooter and knew Monday would be the perfect day to set up on our corner outside the school. There were parents and kids coming in and out of the school from 9:00 to 1:00. How could anyone resist these little entrepreneurs…

and their helpful employees!!

Maxwell’s sign alone drew in the crowds! These boys sat out in the hot sun all day and earned $150!! Wow!!

A great end to summer!!

Two weeks of fun!

August 9, 2021

We picked Spencer from Falling Creek Friday and I was so excited to give this kid a huge hug!! He had the very best time and is ready to go back next year. He made new friends – specifically James, Guy, and Teddy – loved archery, did horseback, climbing, football, basketball and tennis and so much more! Only downside – he got stung by a wasp, twice! Ouch! He signed up for a rock climbing adventure that got rained out and turned into a cool waterfall adventure. He learned how to fold socks and that he likes cereal and syrup! ha! Overall this kid gained independence and had incredible experiences – can’t ask for much more out of two weeks of camp!
