Riley's Farm Field Trip!

The boys had so much fun going out to this farm.  We had read Little House On the Prairie in preparation for this field trip.  We learned about Pioneers and wagon trains.  We also got to help make apple cider and do a tin craft while we were there.  We rode in a horse drawn hay ride and learned about the surrounding mountains and about apples.
 

























 We spent the day with our good friends the Wallace's.  We ended our adventure with caramel apples that were so super yummy!!



The Aquarium Field Trip

We learned about habitats this time.  The boys were excited to get called on to help put stuff up on the wall.
 
Owen decided to just lay on the floor for a while...






 there were some cool things to touch in the tank...


 Owen wanted in on the action!!

 we got to see the scuba diver and he talked to the kiddos, they thought that was awesome!
 we got to hang out with Kevin's friend Scotty...
 These are my favorite animal at the aquarium...the leafy sea dragons!!
 
 
The Aquarium is always fun for the boys!! I am glad we got to hang out with some friends while we were there :)

K-1 Park Day

One of the classes we attend at CHEP is Park Days.  Pretty much they do their school work at the park with their friends and then there is a physical activity they do as well.  They did a chalk obstacle course after they finished their work at this one. 
 
Adam really likes these because he gets to hang with his buddies.  It was especially nice this time because Kevin went to Carl's Jr. with his 2nd grade buddy, Victor and his Mom,  and they had their Social Studies lesson together there.  So they had fun and Adam had fun.  Also I got some time with Owen alone at the park which we never get. Isaac was at preschool right next door to the park so it was a pretty nice set up "that day". 
 




Preschool Field Trip

Isaac's First Field Trip
 
So Isaac could not wait for his field trip and it finally happened!  It happened on Oct 3rd (my birthday)  So I packed up everyone and some lunches and we headed out for our annual trip to the pumpkin patch but this time we went with Isaac's Preschool class.

 
We got to ride the train and a hayride pulled by a tractor!
 


We got to see some old friends, The Stewarts, Ella is in Isaac's class which is super fun!


 
 We are going to have to watch out for these cute faces in a few years...YIKES!





 Tell Isaac to smile and I get the face above...but I got a good one here below.


 
 Me and my favorite time consumers...
below:  Isaac and few of his buddies!



 Ha, that's funny!



Owen really thought he was going to be able to pick it up!






Our first pony ride in the family and it caused quite a stir.  Kevin wanted to ride but was too tall and that was pretty devastating.  So we ended up compromising he got his face painted instead.





We always have fun every fall at the pumpkin patch.  It was fun to have a day for Isaac and he had so much fun seeing all his friends outside of class.
