Shaylee wanted me to go on her field trip really bad. I actually wanted to go as well, and I knew Breck would love it. So Breck and I followed the bus down to Stahli's Farms, and spent the morning with Shaylee on her field trip. I love spending time with my kids, and Breck loved getting out of the routine of the day. We first learned about eggs, and chickens, then we moved to the next station which was Pizza. Yes, I thought it was weird too. They told us how each thing on the pizza gets made through some sort of farming process. The kids loved it. After we learned about soil, and ate some apples, then went over to the sheep, pigs, cows, chicken roosters, and other animals, to learn about the care of them. Breck took it upon himself to start the petting zoo early, while the other kids listened he roamed around trying to feed the animals. One little lamb in particular wanted to get to Breck bad, and while brick was feeding it the lamb crawled under the fence to get out. This sent Breck a running right back to me, but then he realized the lamb wasn't going to get him, he wanted to go get the lamb. Shaylee and her friends took Breck around to all the different animal stations. Our next station we learned about bees, and got to try there honey. We then headed over to the big cow station were we finished up learning about cows. We sure love Shaylee and I'm glad I got to go spend some time with her.
