Class Field trip

Today I took the day off from work to volunteer on Myles's Class Field trip to the Children's Museum. It was a ton of fun! When I got to school, the kids were finishing up their music/singing session - that was so cute and funny to see the kids singing silly songs and goofing off to the songs. We then got paired up with our assigned kids, and Myles was so happy to be with his good buddy (*no name used just to be on the safe side). We all lined up and marched off to our bus.

The bus ride there was funny because I got to listen to Myles & his buddy chat about boy stuff. That mostly was space/alien stuff, poop, toys, and observations they saw out the bus window. Made me chuckle.

We all started off by eating the lunch we all brought. After scarfing that down in 20 minutes, we were off to explore the Museum! The boys got a mini lecture from me to set expectations that they were not to go anywhere without telling me first. They decided the first place to visit was the Dinosaur room. We actually ended up going there a few times to check out the dinos. We visited the Nature World a few times and ran around the ant hill, got soaked in the "river", and explored the Woodchuck lodge. We went into the World Works room to explore, and the Our World room. The kids were also thrilled to explore the China room - they kept calling it Chinese room. Funny. One of the last things we saw was this little snake show. The kids were thrilled with it! They got to touch the snake with one finger.

Then it was back to the bus for the long ride back to school. I was so tired!!!! I will admit to closing my eyes just for a minute. I got to bring Myles home right away, and Myles fell asleep on the car ride home (all 5 minutes of the ride).

It was a wonderful day, and I couldn't have asked for better kids to watch. Myles and his buddy had a blast, and were really well behaved!

Last, but never least - here is the final picture before we got on the bus to head back to school. The boys had a blast and really enjoyed being paired up together! And I loved that they were really well behaved!
