Surprise!

PTO surprised Spring and I with appreciation gifts. They gave us a box of cards the kids had made for us, flowers, a cookie basket, and a crystal statue commemorating our first year as principal and assistant principal.

Daniel and Travel Ball

This summer Daniel is playing Dixie Youth baseball as well as travel ball. We've been watching a lot of baseball so far this summer. Looks like it's going to be a long, hot summer of baseball fun!!

Outside at East Chester

Recess, PE, and Fantastic Fridays....All good reasons to enjoy the beautiful weather outside at East Chester this year.

Kite Day 2010

Kite Day is always fun at East Chester. We had a great day his year.

Easter Centers in Kindergarten

I visited Mrs. Michelle's class while they were enjoying Easter centers. I snapped a few pictures of their fun.

Flood 2010

We knew that the weather forecast for the weekend was calling for a lot of rain, but I don't think anyone expected what actually happened. We got so much rain that school was cancelled for Monday, May 3. There was also a tornado in Selmer that did a lot of damage. It seems like Chester County was extremely lucky compared to others around us.

Javy Lopez

One of our all-time favorite players for the Braves was #8 Javy Lopez. He played catcher a while back. Katy was about 3-4 when he played and when we would watch the Braves every night, she would stand in front of the TV and yell "Go Javy, Go Javy!". She loved Javy so much. When we heard that he would be coming to the Diamond Jaxx game last night, we knew we would have to go and try to see him. He was so nice. He autographed Daniel's glove and made several pictures with us. It was a perfect night for baseball, and we enjoyed it very much with Becky, Carter, and LB along with Mr. Gary and Mrs. Rosemary. But, hands-down, the highlight of the night was getting to meet Javy Lopez and how very nice he was to all of us.
