Field Trip -- Dry Gulch USA

It was an unseasonably cold day for the Kindergarten

field trip to Dry Gulch (our church's camp) but the

kids (and parents) had an AWESOME time. We are

so blessed with such a wonderful church and school.

Our church built Dry Gulch to mimic an old western

town and everything there (buildings, train,

playgrounds, eating facilities, etc) is top of the

line. I can't wait for Christmas Train! (2009)

Bella is telling everyone that her daddy couldn't

come on the field trip because he didn't fill out the

parent form in time... we missed you

daddy!

The kids were very well behaved... we were

waiting for our turn to ride the carriage.


I thought this little horse and carriage ride would
be pretty uneventful but the 2 horses they had
pulling us must have had some serious caffeine.
It felt like we were riding on a roller coaster.


This pony was born on Sunday!!!
We all got to pet it, along with a baby Shetland
Pony, some sheep, and a pig (which we stayed
arms length from... he kept trying to eat our shoes!)


Bella is holding a baby chick!
She was so excited to have this little one
in her hands... 'Mommy, I think he likes me,
can I have one??' -- let me think about
that... uh ---- No. She also asked for
a horse (I'll let Shawn handle the response to
that one).



My silly little girl...

Ok - so this isn't a pick from our field trip
Isn't he cute! Holding his own toothbrush.
And wearing some serious highwater pants!
We can't keep up with him. He keeps outgrowing
everything we buy... very much a good thing.
