Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Class pictures from this year!
Samantha in 2nd with Mrs. Brown…
Spencer in 4th with Mrs. Faulkner (who was on maternity leave so Mrs. Dyess is in the picture!)…
and Maxwell in 6th with Mrs. Cox!
Plus the 6th graders all dressed up as a group!
What a year it’s been. Last year with all 3 at MBE. Gonna miss having them all together!
I really don’t think I ever shared the kids class pictures from last year! I didn’t get them until the beginning of this school year and just never did anything with them…but here they are!
Samantha in 1st grade with Mrs. Jones….
Spencer in 3rd grade with Miss Campbell…
and Maxwell in 5th grade with Miss Rogers!
It was a great year for all 3!
MBE had their Grandfriends event last week and we were so happy that both GJ and Lulu and Granddaddy could come! Despite the rainy weather, it was a fun morning and I know the kids loved getting to show off their classrooms. I think the grandparents loved seeing everyone…and hearing the same book in all 3 classrooms! ha!
We are so lucky to have such wonderful grandparents that love to come visit!! GJ was even nice enough to help me get people registered! She’s always been good at that sort of thing.
These cuties got to present their poster at the 2nd grade table…
A fun morning at MBE! Thanks for coming GJ and Lulu and Granddaddy!
A few weeks ago Samantha had book character dress up day and went as Pinkalicious!
She was definitely pretty in pink! She always turned in this masterpiece for the Expressions art contest.
She didn’t win anything but I thought it was great! Meanwhile, the 6th grade volunteered a Rise for Hunger to make meals…
Maxwell looks good in a hairnet!
On Saturday of President’s Day weekend we got up bright and early to drive to Auburn for the day so Maxwell and his teammates Forest could compete in the VEX State Robotics Competition. They had a 3rd teammate, Luke, but he unfortunately decided to go on a family trip that weekend instead of robotics.
We knew more of what to expect this year v. last year. The boys got their robot inspected…
completed their interview…
and then started the competitions! They had 9 different matches on the field and their robot did exactly what it was built to do each time! Can’t ask for better than that. There was some drama throughout the day with several teams getting disqualified for various things – the judges were being very strict.
Of course the spectators were good sports and found ways to entertain themselves over the 8 hours we were there!
The Gigachads ended up ranked 43 out of 75 teams. I’m very proud of them and I think they are proud of themselves! I love all that Maxwell has learned through the robotics program and glad we got to go to State again!
Mr. Roboto!
