Yellowstone!

 I packed lunch and dinner for the day, they kids were so excited to be gone from sun up to sun down.

 Juliet ready for nap.

 Yellowstone is gorgeous!

We had a blast, and the next day - grandpa left.

It was a good trip

West Yellowstone

Sorry for the lapse in blogging. My phone broke- I had to wait for a new one to come,and then my computer broke, and the replacement came. HOPEFULLY - this will make blogging much easier since I have 2 new machines. HAHA

Before Grandpa left, we went to Yellowstone. Its seems like the thing to do when you have visitors in town because it is "so close."

So, we loaded up the car and headed over!

Our first stop was West Yellowstone (bear world)

It was a beautiful drive!

West Yellowstone, is like a museum of bears.

 Except - this kind of museum has LIVE bears!

 Right as we were leaving - they asked if our kids wanted to FEED the bears. Uh, YES They DO!

 So they went into the refuge/exhibit area to feed the bears! WHat?!!?

 Besides having an awesome experience, they also go these pins!

I will post Yellowstone tomorrow!

I still can't believe they got to do this! SO COOL,

I am sure this is a scout requirement - somewhere in there!

Field Day!

This school goes ALL out for field day. 

For grades 1-5 it is on Tuesday. 6th grade has their mega goodbye/graduation party at the same time for the whole day. 

Kinder is on Wednesday (their last day) and on Thursday - the last day of school it is a short day and the whole school watches the 6th grade vs teachers basketball game.

Which I didn't let my class go to because the room was trashed and I didn't have that many interested.

Once the cleaning was done, I let the 4 boys who were dying to go, check it out while the girls did yearbooks, etc.

Did I mention that I did the yearbook?

I did! It looked awesome.

Okay, field day!!

It is broken down into 5 parts

Large Group Games

Relays

Bingo in the Library

Minute to Win it in the Courtyard

Movie in the Gym

Nathan took the day off, and helped while I rotated with my class.

So, here are the pictures!

Every station had these:

and then, kindergarten:

Each kid had their favorite part, Sno Cones was at the very top spot of the list.
