field trips : pre-k 3

ava's class took a field trip this past semester to the cafeteria over at the college campus!

ava & abby - hamming it up in their adorable chef hats!

they are watching the staff prepare food for the day! they did so well with keeping their hands behind their backs!! they didn't touch a thing!

right after this picture, they got to go into the walk-in refrigerator/freezer! they loved it, even if it was cold :)

after they toured the back part of the kitchen - they then got to go out front & watch them make pizza!!

and then they got to experience the most important part of the field trip...

eating some yummy pizza!!

did those kids mind that it was 9:45am?!?!

um - negative - like anyone was going to say a word about eating pizza for their snack - hello!!

group shot of the class - such a sweet group of kiddo's!

they also baked them some warm fresh m&m cookies!!

i can attest to their deliciousness ;)

notice ava in her 'bear backer' gear - matching hairbow & all!!

and i LOVED this picture of them all in a row walking back to school!

they have the same ring-hand-holder-thing as john&kate+8!! so cute ;)

a few weeks later, they took a field trip to the local fire station!!

this was nothing new to ava - since she'd been there before, but it is always a fun outing!

ava & della with their turn in the fire engine!

della's dad is a firefighter & gave the whole class the grand tour :)

here is another firefighter dressed in his turn-outs to show the kids what a firefighter would look like if he had to come to their house to fight a fire!

they were all enamored with his gear & asked so many questions!

ava's class with her fabulous teacher, ms. ruth :)

after the fire station, we all headed over to pet smart to look at the animals!

ava is writing her name on her checklist before the tour!

oh yes - did i mention she can now write her own name?!

she's a genius.

ava & adisyn checking out the fish

i told ava i wanted to take her picture with her favorite fish in the store & these are the ones she picked.

when i asked her 'which one, exactly?' she said 'oh, i don't know - i just like the castle.' 

hahahaha!!

the class got to pick out two new fishies to take back to school with them!!

ava & adisyn taking turns holding 'princess' and 'cowboy' ;)

they were all so excited to see a doggie get groomed!!

they all look so sweet up there ;)

after the field trip, we ended the outing with a much deserved trip to chik-fil-a!

it was so nice to let the kids play & all the parents visit & get to know each other!

not to mention some delicious food... ;)
