Farm Field Trip


















This wasn't Colby's first field trip. He went to the zoo earlier this year but I missed it, so I was eager to chaperone this time. Thank you Kimber for watching Hanna and Liam so Colby and I could have a fun day at the farm! After a painfully long drive, we stopped at a pretty snazzy park in Chandler for sack lunches and playtime. I was in charge of Colby and his friend Dillon and it was all I could do to keep up with them at the park. Once we got to the farm, it was a little more organized and a little less stressful. It was what you would expect from a farm field trip - a lovely guided tour of a stinky farm and lots of animal touching. Colby has a band-aid on his chin because he had recently received some stitching. If you can picture him standing on a chair and then imagine his face colliding with the floor, that's pretty much how it went down (aside from lots of crying and bleeding). That's my six-year-old! I was glad to get some alone time with my busy little adventurer :)

  3. How fun! I love his smile! Is he at Odyssey? That's my cousin's charter school. Do you guys like it? I'm actually starting my boys at a charter school next year and I'm so excited.

  6. Sorry, I could be more specific, huh? My cousin is Megan Olsen, the principal there. I haven't even talked to her much about the school in years, but I just remember how excited she was to start it up a few years ago.
