First Field Trip

Gracie's preschool class went to Walter's Fruit Ranch up on Greenbluff last week.  Most parents went along too, so when I see this group photo, I also remember the group of just as many parents standing a few feet away with cameras in their hands.  All parents had cameras, that is, except me--the Lochheads were just lucky to be there that day!  Luckily Addi's mom emailed me some pictures!  Thanks, Tiffany!

 Cute dangling feet and someone with a pesky boog...

  They learned about how important bees are to the orchard.  They were explaining pollination, but I was giggling after they said the bit about how bees have fuzzy legs, just like the kids' daddies, so don't quiz me on the process.

 Sweet Addi and Gracie.  These girls have to stick together--did you count the 4 girls and 9 boys?  Luckily they're quite sweet boys!  The parents were laughing about how the kids picked out great $5 pumpkins...sheeeesh!  We should've had a game plan before picking out pumpkins: "Biggest one!  Biggest one!"  They really liked the cute little pumpkins.

After picking and eating an apple, drinking cider, tasting apple butter, posing for pictures, and picking pumpkins, we were ready to go home.  It was a really fun morning.  Nap time was even better.  :)
