2nd grade fieldtrip

On MOnday I got to join Ame on their

fieldtrip to Utah Botanical Center in Kaysville.

I actually found it quite interesting, fun and

informative. I think the kids did as well.

They learned about lifecycles and got to have a popcorn relay.

We also learned about all sorts of insects
and plant life.

The kids got to explore life from the pond

and PLAY with bugs!

As you can see Ame was lovin' this...

and proud of the things she captured (and then let go)!

This is Ame new friend, Layla.

She is a really cute girl, and her mom

is the 4th grade English teacher in

the spanish immersion program, so

Ame will have her in a few years.

I can already tell they are going to be

best pals! I am so glad, cuz those first few days

were hard for Ame. Joining a class where

everyone already knew eachother.

After exploring at the center for a few hours

we headed to the park to enjoy more of the

beautiful weather and have a picnic.

I am so glad I got to join Ame for a fun day

before things gets crazy next month, and my life

is A LOT busier!!
These times together are so special.
