Fieldtrip

Today Alex's 2nd grade class came to our house for a Giant pumpkin fieldtrip. It was so fun!! I taught them all about growing Giant pumpkins, and they came prepared with a ton of questions.



When I lifted the blanket off the pumpkin, there was a collective Wooooaaahhh, from the class. They were very impressed with the size of my pumpkin.

(See Bruce, my pumpkin is cool!)


I was surprised by how excited they were. (It's always nice to get validation for your nerdy hobby by a bunch of 8 year olds.)

We snacked on chocolate chip pumpkin cookies and juice


I remember when I was in elementary school always wanting to be the cool kid. I never was........but today I got to watch my son be the cool kid in his class, as he helped me with the fieldtrip. It was fabulous!

Tonight Alex said to me "Mom you did a really great job today. You're the best mom, thanks for the happy day".

Anything for you my love....................
