After working so hard all year, the last few weeks kindergarten had some breaks for some extra special fun. They took a trip to the Gentry Animal Safari. This is a tradition with our kindergarten classes. I got to go the year Madeleine was in kindergarten and was so excited to go again this year! Matt even got to join us -- after working lots of extra hours during April for testing, he deserved a day off. So, we all loaded up and headed up to Gentry for the day!
Matt & I had quite a crew of little boys that we trailed along with through the walking part of the safari. After exploring and seeing lots of animals and petting/feeding them, we had all worked up an appetite! All 4 classes met up and had a picnic lunch together. Harrison sat by one of his best buds, Owen and I snapped a pic of them!
The second part of the day is spent doing the drive through safari. We actually checked Harrison out and drove ourselves & Charlotte through it. It's tough to see on the bus and we wanted to enjoy this together. Harrison sat in my lap & Charlotte sat with Matt & "drove" as we went through it. She was giddy getting to sit in the front seat with Daddy!
They did some free writing the last few weeks -- this came home in Harrison's backpack one day. Melted my heart! Not sure what I'd done that day to deserve it, but he sure loves his mommy! That boy is so sweet!
Both Madeleine & Harrison had field day. Harrison was pretty excited and unsure about what it was going to be like. We had lots of field day talk in the days leading up to it -- Madeleine was happy to tell him all about it. Both kids came home with face paint, but only Harrison's was still fully intact. He was a superhero. :)
