Paiyton first field trip!

Jensen, Paiyton and Victoria (Paiyton's Chapel buddies) Paiyton and Mrs. Neumeyer (her teacher)

This was Paiyton's first field trip, yeah. It was on October 16Th. It was so much fun for her and for Mommy. I was one of the drivers for her class so we loaded up and off we went.

We headed to Mitchell Farm about 30 minutes north. They have hay rides, pumpkin patches for picking your own pumpkin, four different enclosed play areas and animals to feed and see. This was a field trip with the Kindergarten and the 6Th grade class. To give some back ground the 6Th graders are the chapel buddies for the kindergartners. It is a buddy system to help the small ones to pay attention as well we an accountability for the 6Th graders to be good examples for the little ones, it is awesome to see and watch them with each other. Paiyton's chapel buddies are Victoria and Jensen and let me just say what two wonderful little ladies that have been paired up with Paiyton. They are so caring and loving with Paiyton and have such genuine concern for her. Coincidentally Victoria's family goes to our church so Victoria and her Mom are Emmah's teachers in Puggles at Awana each week as well.

This was so much fun for Paiyton. It started with a hay ride to the pumpkin patch to pick their own pumpkins. Victoria and Jensen just surrounded Paiyton and helped her pick her pumpkin, then they let Paiyton pick their pumpkins for them as well. I thought that was so thoughtful. After the hay ride it was off the the Popcorn Popping, the old fashioned way and to learn about how the farm is run.

After that is was seeing the animals and some feeding and play...play...play. The baby pig was the talk of the day though. When Farmer Mitchell picker her up she screamed! And I mean screamed, hence Paiyton covering her ears in this picture. They also have these partially enclosed areas that are filled with hay to play on and slides and tunnels. Paiyton was in her glory and I am so blessed to be able to stay home with the girls and attend all these wonderful firsts with my little lady. What a Blessing!
