Summertime!

School ended about two weeks ago and we are officially on summer break! We are all excited to have more relaxing days and lots of time for fun with our family and friends.

Evan completed fifth grade and he will be going to Kammerer Middle School next year. He had a really great year in fifth grade. He is a bit sad to be leaving Chancey Elementary, where he has attended since kindergarten. He is excited for middle school though! He is a great kid and I am sure he will have a great time in middle school, full of new friends and new opportunities.

Preston completed kindergarten. He also had a great year. He learned so much and made many new friends. He loved having Mrs. Reynolds and Mrs. Walker as his teachers. He also loved recess! I am really impressed with his reading and math skills, as well as how well he did with the transition from preschool to elementary school. He is SO outgoing now. It has been amazing to see him blossom this year.

Preston had an adorable closing ceremony! Grammy, Granddaddy, Bonnie Mom and Grandpa were able to join us for the program.



Preston received the "Jolly Rancher" Award for always being so funny!


We are SO happy that Preston had Mrs. Reynolds and Mrs. Walker as his kindergarten teachers. They are AMAZING!


After the program, Preston went to Chuck E. Cheese to celebrate! He LOVED playing the games and winning tickets!


The kindergarten closing program featured Pete the Cat. I loved Preston's "costume." He was adorable as he sang and danced throughout the program. He even rocked his small speaking part!


 We are ready for summer!




Evan had a promotion ceremony on the last day of school. Bonnie Mom, Grandpa and Grammy were able to join us. Granddaddy would have joined us too, but he was on a mission trip to Belize.



Mrs. Lotze and Mr. Pollock were great teachers! I don't think we could have had a better combination for Evan's fifth grade year.





Chancey Soccer Team - Spring 2019

Evan earned a place on Chancey's soccer team this spring. The Chancey Cardinals had a great season. They were good enough to play in the "A" league this year and they were competitive all season. They had some great wins, as well as some ties. They lost a few games too, but the games were always close. I was so proud of the team, because even when they were down, they worked together and played hard. They never gave up.

Evan had a great season. He worked hard and became a really good keeper. He was encouraging to his friends and was always a good sport. We are really proud of him!

We were all sad to see the season come to an end, especially since this is the last year Evan will play for Chancey. It was really fun to watch this team play and we know all of the kids had a great time playing together.
