Christian's field trip

I got to be a chaperon for Christian's field trip.  We went to Bull Run Park and visited different shows about Indians, Africa, animal adaptation, and farm animal.  They have units of all of these things in 2nd grade.  I had a great group of kids and got to have a lot of fun and it was a beautiful day.  He also go to be Star of the Week that week too!

Christian's music Program

Christian had his second grade music program in May and they did Tales of Temples and Tombs.  They were studying about Egypt in class.  If the kids wanted they could dress up like someone from Egypt, Indiana Jones, or a Mummy.  Christian wanted a mummy so I took an old pair of PJ and turned them inside out and ripped up an old shirt of Brian's and hot glued strips of t-shirt on the PJs.  It turned out pretty good!
The program was good as second grade programs go!  He was being a ham the whole time.

Capitol Tour

The capitol gives free tours to the public and Christian's boy scout troop went, but we couldn't go due to basketball games so I scheduled one for just our family.  We went on a Saturday that was a beautiful day and had a picnic and went on the tour.  It was a good tour, but I wanted to stay in the rooms longer to look at everything.  The flowers were gorgeous around the capitol so we took a lot of pictures.  It is so fun to go into DC for a little trip and not have to try and do everything in one or two days.  It was a fun time.  We have really learned our way around DC and I even feel a little more confident about it.

Same shirt

The kids came down the other morning at different times with their superman shirts on.  No they didn't talk to each other about it.  Just thought it was funny!  Great minds think alike!
