Campbell’s Colorful Cobras

June 1, 2022

Spencer’s class did it up right for Field Day too! They all voted on their theme and decided to be Campbell’s Colorful Cobras and even tie-dyed their own shirts at school! We then added some tie dye socks and rubber snakes and they were set! I also had his class over before school for breakfast and made a sign for his class to carry as well.

I wish we had gotten all the kids a wig like Whitt’s! ha!

I adored Spencer’s teacher this year, Miss Campbell. She was the best!

Questionable form…not questionable effort! ha!

The colorful cobras ended up winning the Shield of Destiny! That’s the sportsmanship award and therefore the very best one to win! Hooray! They ended up 2nd place overall.

Also, while I was out there watching his class, this butterfly sat on my head for a solid 2 minutes. Pretty cool!

Jones’ Jaguars

May 31, 2022

One of the best parts of the last week of school? Field Day!! This year was extra big, extra over the top, and extra fun! I helped organize Spencer and Samantha’s classes and they all looked great. Samantha’s class was Jones’ Jaguars! Roar!

When no other mom stepped up to spearhead Field Day for the class, I took charge – which also meant Samantha got to pick the class color! Was there any question which color she would pick?! I also made a sign for them to carry onto the field and we had her class over to the house the that morning before school to get ready. I had Krispy Kremes and muffins and they all got decked out!

They were pretty excited when they got onto the field!! Samantha’s competitive streak came out and she was taking those games pretty seriously. I love to see it!!

My favorite part of that picture are the pitiful neon girls in the background. Too funny!

Mrs. Jones’ class came in 3rd of 5 classes. They didn’t win the spirit award or the “Shield of Destiny” so it’s hard to win overall without winning either those because they give you 20 extra points. I personally think they were robbed but…no one asked me! ha! They were all pretty excited with 3rd though and, most importantly, they all had a really fun day!!

Go Jones’ Jaguars!!

Schools out!

They did it! They made it through the school year and they THRIVED!

Tuesday was the last day and I think they were all pretty excited to wrap up the school year and kick off summer!

First Day to Last Day!

Bible Club

May 25, 2022

In the fall and spring we hosted Bible Club for all 3 grades. 5th grade was in GJ’s backyard after school on Mondays. I don’t have any pics from that but it’s a well oiled machine thanks to Frank’s grandmother!

3rd grade boys met at our house before school on Tuesdays and we always had a good turnout. We got dads to do the lesson each week and that worked out really well.

1st grade girls met at our house on Wednesday mornings. Katey, Gina and Fran did a great job all year engaging the girls!

It is fun to host things like this so I get to know the kids’ friends better. Lots of early mornings but it’s worth it!

School Fun

May 24, 2022

Today is the last day of school! We did it!! Still have things to wrap up from the last few weeks…

First grade got to go on a field trip to Jones Valley Teaching Farm where they chopped up some veggies and made their own snack! Samantha even said it tasted good! Amazing!
