Pumpkin Patch Field trip

Last Thursday, all the kindergarteners at Tony's school went to visit the farms at Shasta College and Meagan and I got to tag along. Now, Tony thought the whole thing was just ok, he's not too sure about the animals and the hay really stinks, as he puts it. In fact the best part for him was riding the school bus for the first time. (I have to drop him off and pick him up every day) Meagan on the other hand was beyond happy. I'm pretty sure we have a future 4H'er in this little girl. FFA, look out!! She loves anything to do with farms- animals, tractors, you name it. She was squealing and oohing and ahhing the second we got out of the car. After her little happy dance (one of these days I need to get that on video!) she pulled me across the parking lot to the horse coral and climbed right up to the top rung like she's been doing it all her life. She didn't even bat an eye when the horse walked right up to her, face to face. She was one happy little girl, let me tell you! All in all the kids had a great time, and at the end got to take a hay ride out to the pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin...
