Uncle Wayne would be proud

Yesterday the boys went to the Pitt County Math Masters Competition. Only the top 6 students in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades qualified. They had to take a test about 6 weeks ago to qualify, and both my boys got it. What nerds (jk). They left the school at 8:30 and had group and individual testing all morning. I got to meet them for lunch and hang out the rest of the competition.My boys were most excited for free pizza, my kind of lunch, FREE
This is Kaden placing #21 out of 320 kids. He got to move to the next round of questioning. They took the top 32. That's as far as he got. I was so proud to see my kid up there. He was competing against 5th graders. Only 3 kids from his school made it to this part. One of which took #1 of the whole thing.
This is part of the group of kids from the boys school. They took 2nd place over all there were 10 schools there.
This is Tanners group winning FIRST place over all the other 20 5th grade teams
I am so proud of all my kids and their accomplishments. Kali is reading way above her level and she just might be the next in the family to go to the Math Masters. Kaden got honor roll for the 3rd time this year, and Tanner got Principals list.
Just a quick HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my favorite twin. Love you and can't wait to spend a birthday with you again.
