This fall has been full of fun for McKinley at preschool. His class took two field trips over the last few weeks, one to a local apple orchard, the other to a local fire station. I was lucky enough to have my Mom join us at the orchard and Cary at the fire station...I'm getting pretty big and my balance is thrown off, so having the extra hands are wonderful.
We all enjoyed the fire station as much as last year. This year the station had a brand new ambulance, state of the art, and McKinley and his buddies all got to take a tour. It was pretty exciting! Equally as exciting was the city bus ride to and from...especially when one rider decided she needed to exit the bus and would rather walk than to ride with one big happy preschool family! Her loss!
The apple orchard was great too. It had gotten cooler, the perfect fall day. We enjoyed hearing about the picking process of the employees and seeing the entire process of how the clean, separate, bag and sell the goods. All the visitors got to take home a nice bag of apples, we added some gourds and butternut squash to our stash before we headed home. So much fun, it's nice to have some really great opportunities in McKinley's preschool.
I've also included a photo below of the "About Me" poster project we completed together. Homework! No, really, it was so fun to gather all the stuff then build it with McKinley. I LOVE how it turned out!
Loving the fall!
