We have started summer break! I have noticed a sharp increase in the messiness of the house now that all the kids are home all day. We are having fun though. Each day we do some home summer school and go to the park for lunch. Every Friday I'm trying to think of an activity we can go do for a field trip Friday.
Our first fied trip Friday was at the zoo. It was a not a great day as far as the weather went. It rained pretty hard. The rain couldn't dampen our spirits though! We had a great time. I liked the baby elephant. There was a camel just laying out in the rain. S thought that was so funny for some reason. We rode the carousel. The only sad thing was that the shows were cancelled due to rain. We will have to go back another day when it is sunny to see the shows.
Yesterday we went to Wheeler Farm. The kids enjoyed seeing the animals, climbing the tree, and playing in the treehouse. We also took a tractor ride around the farm. The kids had a fun time.
Next I think we might try the West Fest. That should be fun for the kids. We can ride carnival rides and eat carnival food. We can also check out the free entertainment.
