Field Trip

Today was our much anticipated school field trip to the Butterfly Pavilion! We were up bright and early and even Buster commented on the fact that it was still dark. We arrived early and enjoyed the nature trail in the cool morning.
Once inside, it was straight to the insect room. We did a year long unit on insects and I was pleasantly surprised at how much everyone remembered. It was amazing to see these huge spiders!
Another big hit was the giant hermit crabs and the starfish. Everyone but Buster enjoyed petting one.
The three middle girls all took a turn holding Rosie the Tarantula. I decided to give it a try too. She was soft an fuzzy, but still super creepy.

It was such a fun day and a great start to the weekend!
