Bethany Finally Goes To School!!

Bethany has started her first year of preschool. And she was so ready she had been waiting for this for a long time. They have already gone on two field trips this year. Their first one was to the fire department.
This is the morning and afternoon class together playing what's hot and what's not.
While we were there the firefighters got a call and had to leave. The kids stood against the station and waved goodbye. Even though we didn't get the classic picture of sitting in the truck, it was fun for the kids to see them go out on a call with the sirens going.

The second field trip we went on was to the Bi-Zi Farm. This is always one of my favorites. There is always so much to do and the kids love it.
They get to climb on a Hay Pyramid.
The get to go through a hay maze with a couple of tractor tires,
and a giant tunnel to climb through.
Then they get to go see the animals. This was Sam's favorite part. He found a baby goat and put his arm around it and wouldn't let go. It was just like one of his stuffed animals at home. We were finally able distract him by feeding the animals.
Bethany was really good at that. She loved feeding the goats.

Then they went on a hay ride to pick out pumpkins.
At first Sam just tried to throw all of the pumpkins like balls. Then he started to sit on all of them and ride them like a horse. Whatever keeps him busy!
Bethany loves preschool so much that she wants to go everyday! She is growing up way too fast!

Those are both great field trips. I wish our preschool did that. It sounds cool if you got to watch the fire crew get ready to go on call.
