More from May

In other May news . . .

I was able to go with Delaney on her field trip to the Cosmosphere - what fun!  I always enjoy watching her interactions with her friends!

Quinli, Delaney, Lydia, Elaina - of course Delaney seems to be a goofball in this picture!


Also in May, Cale and Addi were busy with state tennis and state swimming.  We didn't get a chance to see tennis, but Cale's team finished as state runners-up!  Addi represented Hesston at state swimming, and the girls and I went to Topeka to watch.  She swam well, but maybe not as fast as she wanted to.  No matter how she finished, I know she was overjoyed to be swimming at state!

5th place in the 50 M freestyle


3rd place in the 100 M Free

Still more:  Delaney again participated in our school's volleyball and basketball camps at the end of May.  She loved every minute of them, particularly volleyball.  She continues to develop her skills in both sports, and we are looking forward to watching her compete for JH teams in just a couple of years - wow, can that be??

Surprise!

Well, I sure don't get surprised very often, but Saturday night was a huge surprise to me! I thought I was heading to Hesston for an AGCO Christmas Dinner with Chelan. He told me we needed to drop something off at Ben and Tina's house (my cousin), first. Okay, no big deal! While we were there, Ben said they were about ready to go out for dinner, did we want to come along? Surprisingly, Chelan thought about it and wanted to do it (clue #1 that something was up). I kept saying that we couldn't skip out on his dinner, but Chelan insisted that going to Wichita for dinner would be much more fun. I even said, "This seems like something you had planned!" However, I'm always up for dinner in Wichita, so I agreed, reluctantly!! We enjoyed a meal at Hangar 1 Steakhouse and I thought that was the end of it. But, on the way home, Chelan asked if we could go by the new arena since the inaugural concert was there that night -- Brad Paisley! I thought it would be f...

Spring Art

While Mrs. Schmidt was away on maternity leave during the spring, Mr. Novak (from Hesston) filled in for her. Since Cambry has her first 3 class periods in the art room, she got to know him very well and he mentioned several times how he appreciated Cambry's artistic style and way of thinking. He even let her paint a little bit on his own pieces! Cambry took several pieces to the WSL art festival in April. She came home with a first place finish in the graphic design category and an honorable mention in the computer design category. We are so thankful for the instruction she has received over the last 4 years in Goessel. Now, on to Hesston College with Professor Cross!

Off and Running!

A month into the school year and everyone seems to be clicking along . . . at least for now! We caught up with Cambry today, now in a room of her own for the very first time! She is enjoying her esports team, particularly making the social media posts and taking pictures for the team. She gets some Rocket League time in as well! And she has access to the art building pretty much when she wants it! Caiden is doing his thing at K-State and at athletic events again. And Delaney is trying to do every possible activity available in high school. Of course, her top priority is volleyball, and right now, her team is 2nd overall in 1A-1 and recently won their home tournament for the first time since 2017! And, Kenya is growing like a weed!
