During the first part of October, Pierscen was able to go on his first ever field trip with his school. He was equal parts excited and disappointed - only because he has watched so much Magic School Bus that he was absolutely certain he would get to go on a bus and that, well, magical things would happen. Unfortunately, there is no bus for preschool - just mom's boring car. That being said, he had a blast!
We went to the Galloping Grace Youth Ranch Pumpkin Patch. With each admission you get a cup of food for the animals and a pumpkin. Pierscen was too nervous to feed the animals by hand, so he opted to let them just eat straight from the cup. Devry on the other hand thought it was hilarious to let them lick the food right off of her fingers.
There was so much to do at this pumpkin patch. These little tractors were kind of hard to maneuver, but they were fun.
Devry was so excited to pet these cute piggies!
How incredible is this?! The mural behind the truck is done completely on hay bales and it was done by Pierscen's preschool teacher/director Mrs. Lindsey. She did all of the art work at the pumpkin patch. She is so talented!
P probably would have happily spent the entire time in the corn pit, but Devry did NOT like it.
So while Pierscen played, we walked around the animal pens and found pieces of food that had been dropped and Devry giggled like crazy as she fed them.
This picture on the right makes me laugh a lot. I don't know what this facial expression is, but it is hilarious.
The duck races were Pierscen's favorite. He spent the entire time with his "Buddy" with the blue hair. For the life of them neither of them could remember the other's name. They just called each other "Buddy." They have since learned each other's names and even had an impromptu play date. It was cute to watch them, though a tiny bit frustrating. Both G's mom and myself kept telling them that we needed to go, but they just wanted to play and play.
I would say the first field trip was a success, despite no magical school bus. ;)
