Where in the world....?

Are you smarter than a 6th grader?
Do you know what two states border the Wabash River? What country celebrates the holiday called Tet? What is the highest peak in Africa? Because Kyle knows these things and many more crazy facts. That is why he won the school geography bee. He studied really hard by watching the Planet Earth DVDs (thanks to Grandma and Grandpa McMinn) and National Geographic online. We are so proud of him!
When the questions were being read, Rob and I would just look at each other not knowing what the answers were going to be and Kyle would answer with confidence. Taryn was also watching the competition and the smile on her face was priceless as her brother kept answering the questions correctly. She was so proud of him!

Way to go, Kyle! We love you!

  1. Now that is awesome- a sign on your school with your name on it! Not very many people can say that has happened to them. Way to go Kyle. Maybe I should start watching those DVDs. Kyle can you tutor me?

  3. It appears you have a Mr. Smartypants on your hands. It must come naturally from his Mom (since I don't remember big study sessions when we were roomies.)
