Pre-K Polar Express Day

The last day of school before Christmas break Eli had Polar Express Day. They dressed in their Christmas pajama's, watched the movie, ate popcorn, hot chocolate and other yummy goodies. Their desks are arranged like the train. Eli had a blast and loved it! 


 All aboard the Polar Express!

Cason's New Glasses

Cason got glasses a week before Christmas. Apparently 4th grade is the grade for the Cobb kids to get glasses, so far 2 out of 3 have!

Christmas Tree

The Christmas tree farm we have been going to closed last year and the closest we could find with a tree taller than 4 feet was in Center. So, the Sunday after Thanksgiving we braved the rain and cold and headed to Center. I am glad we went when we did because the farm in Center was low on the larger trees too. 
Our Christmas tree 2020. 
It is around 9 feet tall and has a bit of a crooked trunk. 
Cason cut down the tree all by himself this year and did a great job. 
All finished!!

Turkey Trot 1K and 5K

Thanksgiving morning the kids and Bradley ran the Turkey Trot. Eli and Bradley ran the 1K and then Bradley, Cason, and Emory ran the 5K.

Eli did a great job and pretty much ran the entire time. He was super proud of his medal. 
Several friends from school ran the 5K too. Post-race Regent's Runners picture! 

1st Trimester Report Cards

Last month the kids brought home their first trimester report cards. 


Eli has had a great first trimester of school. He likes certain parts of school (socializing and talking about farms) and dislikes others (rest time). Mrs. V told us last night that Eli has talked up farming so much all the boys but one now want to be a farmer like him. 



Both Emory and Cason picked up right where they left off when COVID hit last year and continue to do well in school. They both earned all A's this trimester.
