This past week I went on a field trip with Casey's class. The funny part is that I went as a "Mom Helper"... yes laugh it up giggles. They assign each mom a job... mine - escorting the kids to the restroom should they need to go... moving up in the world - I know. So Casey and Jordan's class were the only ones that went this day, so there's about 21 kids in each class and at least 4 helpers or more. So onward we go....
Today we are going to three different places... if you're going to do it, I guess do it right huh!! So we get on the bus - each class gets their own bus. This had to be the nicest bus I have ever been on - ever!!! It was air conditioned - had nice seats that reclined - TV's , which of course they played cartoons for the kids while we were driving. It was fabulous.
- That's Casey's teacher up front.
So just a side story - See the lady sitting directly in front of us - well the back of her head anyway???? Yes this lady - (I'm trying to make it more personal for you)...
Anyway we were inbetween stops and there are two exits on the bus. The bus driver had pulled over - I guess to figure out where we were - next thing I know we start going again and this kid yells - "Wait! My mom got off the bus and didn't get back on!"... Needless to say confusion reigns for about five more minutes and 4 city blocks before the bus driver is able to pull over. Chaios for another 5 minutes while they try to reach this lady on her cell phone. A couple more minutes and she arrives - sweating and out of breath - she RAN the whole way... I was impressed, we were at least a mile away by that time... Okay maybe you had to be there, but I was laughing quite hard.
The following are pictures of the park we went to. Apparently this surrounded what was the Presidents home. (The founding President) - No that's not a picture of him!!

We must pay homage to Seth Brundle....
It was really beautiful... I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more if I could have understood what they were telling us..
Here is a horrible picture of me and a wonderful one of Casey...

After the park we went to an Art Musuem... I couldn't take pictures...
So spend the next couple moments imaging French paintings...

Okay - onto the bakery.....
Next we went to a bakery where we ate lunch and got to make cookies.
All the kids had a great time.

Casey really is getting tall. They are not babies anymore :-(...
I still remember them sleeping on my chest and playing at legoland. Wow, I am getting old those memories are 7 and 4 years ago, respectively.
