Our First Field Trip

Today was a big day at our house. It was my first ever field trip. Of course, this means it was Mommy's first ever field trip as a Mommy too. We even brought Baba along since she surprised me by coming to see me do gymnastics and have a sleepover with me last night. What a lucky boy I am!

As usual, Mom made a huge fuss about the trip. We got there early in hopes of scoring some Honeycrisp apples, but they were all sold out so the Momparazzi just took some pictures instead.

Then my friends started arriving. I was so happy to see Jillian!

In a matter of NO time, our teachers got all the pre-school kids rounded up for a story about Apples and how God makes them. I already knew all that because Mrs. Herzog has been teaching us about apples and creation and all things that grow for a few weeks already.

Mrs. Herzog is really smart. She's nice too! She made sure all of us got to see the pictures in the book.

Then it was time to pick apples! I made a beeline for Mrs. Herzog's hand. That's prime property, and she told Mom that she should be very proud of me because I've come a LONG way and am paying attention really well in school now. Thanks for the props Mrs. H!

Jillian and I stuck together. April, Maddie and Mya were there from my class too :) We were only missing one of six. Not a bad turnout.

I found lots of good apples. Mom and Baba were a little disappointed that I kept finding pretty little girls and pretty Moms to give them to instead of filling our bag, but a guy's gotta make his moves when the time is right!

I made sure I gave an apple to my teacher. SCORE me!

Then we went back to the Orchard to say goodbye to everyone.

I was pretty tired from being up and rowdy late with Baba and then waking up at the crack of dawn for my field trip.

But, I managed to rustle up some energy to fight for my turn in this cool board!
Mom says I'm the apple of her eye.

COOOOORNY!

All of my friends went to play at a nearby park after we were done at the Orchard, but due to an ill timed potty break and complete lack of direction, we were unable to join them. Mom and Baba felt pretty bad, so we went to a different park and I got to go 'sploring with Baba. We had a blast! Thanks for coming to visit Baba. Love you!
