Discovery Center Field Trip

Feeling buggy?

Last week, I was able to go with Sophie's class to visit the Discovery Center.  It was a very warm day and most of us didn't realize that we'd be spending the majority of our morning outside.  We still had a great time though.  The kids were looking for animals in the wetlands, we took a walk, they donned boots and waded in the creek (2 from our group fell in and got soaked), examined fossils, studied algae through a microscope, etc.  They had a little bit of time after lunch to explore inside the museum and then it was time to head back to school.  I felt bad for the kids who fell in the creek because we didn't have any clothes for them to change into.

silly Abbie

About a week and a half ago, they had Spirit week at Sophie's school where they had hat day, crazy sock day, Wacky Wednesday, etc.  At the end of the week, the PTA held the Cloverfest celebration.  They had face painting, a cake walk, bounce houses, obstacle courses, etc.  The girls had a great time!  Nana came as well and the weather was perfect.  This time, I got Sophie's face painted first which was a good plan but Abbie decided to get hers painted later so Nana waited in line with her.  I didn't get a picture of Abbie's face painted before she smeared it badly.  Sophie was definitely a little social butterfly!  She enjoyed seeing all of her friends!  We all had a good time catching up with old and new friends!  Daddy missed Cloverfest because he was out of town.
