Lions, Tigers & Bears Oh My!




So this year I got to accompany the 2nd graders to the Columbus Zoo and the animals were not always caged, lol. I was so happy I was able to go with going back to work and all, but needless to say the field trip was on a day of no preschool - yeah. Granted they are great about asking off I would have just had to ask to get a sub, but considering we just started and I just started didn't want to. So all was good in the world and I was able to be at the school by something like 7 so we could get loaded on the buses, well the kids, parents had to drive themselves, to get to the zoo because it is about an 1 1/2 hour drive and we had to be back by 3 for kids to get on buses, plus you had to have lunch too. So needless to say it was a fast moving day at the zoo. Too funny that a field trip like this and carpooling suggested brings out the high schoolers in all of us again and we start who are you riding with, etc. So 5 of us parents rode together and I have to say that was a ball!! It was a hoot to just be able to chill together and chat, of course, the trip home was like OMG I had this kid that did this, etc. So this is just a picture of our group for the day and a picture of Mrs. Sutherly and her class. To bad the sickness bug for the year had started and several students were not able to make it to such a fun field trip. And actually I am already planning on going when Delaney is a 2nd grader. I am so happy that I have been able to be a stay at home mom or now that I have a "job" it is flexible to still let me have the best of both worlds!
