Hannah had so much fun in the pumpkin patch, and playing in the dirt.

So this past Wednesday, Oct. 1st, Ethan's kindergarten class got to go on their first field trip. It was to Gilcrease Orchards, which has a pumpkin patch. The kids got to pick out one pumpkin and a pint of apple cider that is made there. Hannah and I got to go with him. Ethan was so excited because his class was going with the morning class, so that mean't that he was going to be able to go with his friends from our ward. He was even more excited that he was going to get to ride on a cool school bus for the first time, and he wasn't going to have to ride in a carseat. My friends from the ward and I followed the buses out there and met the kids and were able to be there with them. It ended up being not so much fun for me, I was assigned a group of kids from Ethan's class to look after, and they were running all over and I had to chase them around, and had to chase my own daughter all over the place, and not to mention that it was in the 90's. So I didn't enjoy it that much, but oh well as long as Ethan had fun!! When we got back to the school, Ethan ran off the school bus saying "mom, did you see me riding the school bus all by myself?" He just thought that was the highlight of the trip!! Then we took all the kids to McDonalds for lunch! Ethan had such a fun day!!!
