Field Trip

E and S went  on their very first school field trip (ever) to a pumpkin farm! In pre school ALL of the parents go along because the pre school can't do transportation, so of course I loved going with the girls. It was really fun to see them with their four year old friends and to see them on their first field trip. I found it interesting that Sophie was fine walking and hanging out with her friends without me being right by her, but Ellen liked sticking close to me and needed to know where I was at all times. That is a priceless glimpse into who they are right now! It was a great day on the farm, though too muddy for the hayride. We got to feed ears of corn to the cows, crackers to the goats, and the kids got popcorn bags and juice while we sat on bales of hay and listened to the farmer tell (the parents) about different types of gourds. Then we all walked to the pumpkin patch and the kids got to pick out their own pumpkins to bring home. What a great time!
