Field Trip to the Pumpkin Farm


Tuesday I went with Kenzie on her very first field trip (since it was canceled last year).  We had a really good time.  After the corn maze I had to run to use the little girls room.  I came out and our group was waiting for me.  Everyone was already seated waiting for the hay ride.  I had to run (of course everyone was staring).  The tractor once a took my seat the tractor driver said "Are you ready Karen Michelle?"  I laughed and said "I guess Makenzie told everyone my name (including my middle name)."  The lady sitting next to me said "Oh yeah, she told us everything!"  I was scared to ask what "everything" entailed.  She is a mess and that tractor driver got a real kick out of Makenzie.  She did tell him that she knows how to put on her own shoes and that every morning she gets herself dressed and brushs her hair and teeth and on and on and on...

 "Noooooooo-wah, don't take a picture of me!"

 The goats (the farm lady was kind enough to tell the children that they slaughter them and use them for meat) and look at the baby chics... so cute!
The farm lady asks all the childern... "What is this?"  All the children yell "COW!!!!"  Isn't that what you would have said???  "Well" says the farm lady "I'll let it slide since you all are younger, but this is a heffer.  She won't become a cow until she has a baby and is able to produce milk."  Really lady?  Really?  Come on! LOL  Can you tell I wasn't too thrilled with the farm lady?  When we entered the barn, I said to Megan "It's stinky" and Megan agreed.  The farm lady snaps back "No worse than a dirty diper."  Ok, excuse me! lol



These pictures are from Kenz eating a whole can of spinach at dinner.  She was so proud of herself.  I was proud of her too.
