Field Trips

Following the Como Zoo field trip we all headed to Iowa. (We arrived in Rock Valley around 4pm and at 7pm we were all in the basement at Brad & Pam while a tornado passed by the edge of town!) On Friday Hailey was invited to go with Madison on her preschool field trip to the local green house. What a lucky girl. They got to plant their own flower and learn about all of the different types of flowers. Hailey simply said "I'm just the field trip girl."





Hailey had her big field trip day to the Como Zoo on Thursday! Mike was on vacation and was able to go along; there were not any other dads there so Hailey thought it was pretty special. One of the best things about the trip was riding the bus; Mike said that they all giggled and screamed when the bus turned corners. They had an educational speach about reptiles/amphibians then were assigned to a mom (a dad in Hailey's case). Hailey and her friend Aischa held hands around the entire zoo because they were scared of all of the animals. Mike forgot the snack at the school, so Hailey and Aischa were treated to prezels and pink milk at the zoo (another highlight).
