fog willow field trip

today emi had a field trip to the farm.

it is the same location as the pumpkin patch.

but today they learned about science and had a chance to see all the animals.

we learned that the wife of the couple that runs this place

is a elementary school teacher and that's how it all got started.

she use to have field trips to her property way back when.

there were two cows and some girls where hanging on the other cow

makai wanted a picture of his own.

i love that i caught his face, which he does all the time.

too bad it is slightly blurry but still so cute.

finally the girls moved a little so he backed himself up to the cow.

he is seriously so fun to watch.

eddie was able to join us for the fun.

he took the day off work for his birthday. happy birthday!!

it was so nice to have a second set of hands to contain the monster.

first they gathered all the kids to go over the rules.

and they set off some volcano that was in the middle of the pond.

i guess they do this same field trip again in 1st grade...so we'll be back.

emi with her good friend mason.

they are both a little introverted.

so it takes them a good 20 minutes before they are best friends again.

 

so we are finding out that if makai doesn't have a paci.

he will suck on his left ring finger.

not sure if he is getting a cold or teething but he has had his hands in his mouth

has a slightly runny nose and watery eyes.

i don't think it's allergies cause he isn't sneezing or itching.

they learned how to be little listening cows.

it was fun to watch emi follow directions and in a class setting.

they had a few different stations.

this one was learning the difference between a liquid and solid.

my cousin posted a picture of her twins hair in the letter z.

emi saw it and wanted her hair that way. it turned out cute.

they had to look around. not sure at what, i wasn't paying attention.

makai wanted in on the action. 

i'm glad i bought those boots. he looked so cute.

and maybe he can be where's waldo for halloween. kidding.

emi already decided he is going to be olaf.

i had to get a different view. 

i thought it was so cute he was trying to see what they were doing.

then he saw the dog coming our way.

the farm has 3 saint bernard dogs that roam the far.

one of them is the puppy to the two parents.

they were getting ready to stir their gak.

for someone that hates to get her hands dirty and sticky she sure liked gak.

playing with the gak.

i took makai over to the baby animals for a little while.

some brand new cows.

a hog and donkey.

the donkey is a baby, he name is jelly bean.

hi scout, can we be friends?

scout had a dirty mane/beard...dirty drool

and makai wouldn't touch him, just kept making his dirty noise.

then they made caterpillars.

such a cute idea!! just dirt and grass seeds in nylons.

can't wait to see it grow.

then they got to see some baby animals.

mr. ray has the baby goat.

there was also a lizard, baby chicken and baby duck.

making a silly face at me as i melted in the sun.

i thought this was hilarious.

before we left they handed out their caterpillars they made.

i asked emi where hers was? she said she buckled her in. silly girl.
