Field Trips

We were so busy in May! Benjamin had 2 field trips and Emma had 1. First we had Benjamin's field trip to the fire house. This boy is obsessed with fire men. He has been saying all year that he wants to be a missionary and a fireman, so actually being there was amazing to him. He loved the trucks and sitting where they sit to watch tv and wait for the alarms. He watched one of the fireman get all dressed up and saw the trucks. It was probably one of the best places he has been. I am so glad I got to see that excitement with him!

Next off was the Springs Preserve. It is a desert landscape with museums and animals from the desert. They have lizards, spiders, rabbits, etc. The kids had fun walking around and looking at the different things. Grandma DeeDee met us there and the kids loved having her there and seeing the animals with her.

Last was Emma's trip with her Pre school. Miss Andrea had a private tour at the Shark reef. We went down to a class room where the kids were taught about different habitats and animals and played games and saw fish and snakes in the room. Then we went through and saw all the sharks, turtles, sea horses, alligator, dragon, jelly fish, etc. The kids wanted to pet the sting rays, but they both backed out last minute. Emma loved the jelly fish. Benjamin loved the sharks. It was such a great trip to have with her little class at the end of the year.
