Strawberry Patch Take 2


First things first: Hollister update 
This boy is amazing. Healing super fast and never complaining! Fingers crossed, he'll play baseball tonight, first game since surgery! 

And now, the kindergarten field trip to Sweet Berry Farms in Marble Falls. 

I am lucky enough to have some super administrators that made it possible for me to attend this field trip! 


Ready to head out on the bus! 




 Once we got there, the fun began. 
This farm does field trips all year and they are so well staffed and prepared. 

First stop: SPLAT! 
They have made a game out of the "bad strawberries" 
Each student got to shoot a bad strawberry in the gun and the class made a flag. 


Then they learned about goats. 

 Time to feed the goats! 



 He liked it, but this face says it all! 
Time to wash our hands! 
And yes, they had anti bacterial soap everywhere! 
 Now it was time to learn about planting pumpkin seeds. 


 And a moment for the teacher to add sunscreen to all the kids.
 It was H-O-T! 

 Next up, they learned how ladybugs help keep the aphids away from the strawberries.

 Each student received a lady bug and released it into the patch. 


 Last, but not least... time to pick strawberries!!! 

 Great choices! 

 Some fun class pics! 




And then he took a lunch selfie of us! 

The day was super fun and a great break after a stressful week with Hollister's surgery. 

Kindergarten is coming to an end soon. 
Next up for this one: graduation... 
Time is flying!
