The Pascoal Family Virtual Scrapbook: Field Trip: Fairytale Town

Aiden had his first Field Trip this month. His class went to Fairytale Town. It was a HUGE group - because they combined the morning and afternoon classes. There were hecka kids EVERYWHERE! Luckily, all parents are required to attend the field trips at this age - so no one had to watch more than just their own kids. Which was a task all by itself! We had a good time, and the weather was perfect. We saw some poor kid tumble down a slide on his head...but other than that, it was a pretty nice day for us all. They had a show on the Mother Goose stage while we were there... a production about the Big Bad Wolf, a missing flock and a Sheep Detective. The kids got a kick out of the Big Bad Wolf, who had quite the sense of humor.

Preschool has been going well. Aiden's adjusted to the extra day of school each week. He had his first sharing day this month. He took in a drawing he made with Auntie Angie. He's been drawing more and more. They made a "Book of Me" at school, and in Aiden's self-portrait, he drew himself (a smiley face) standing next to Spiderman (a smiley face with webs on it). His other favorite thing to draw at school are "treasure maps", which consist of a starting point, a line that goes all around the page every which way then ends at an "x", because "x" marks the spot. Sometimes there will be water with a boat on it along the way.

Jeremy started a bible preschool on Wednesdays last week. He and Maria have been attending a Women's Bible Study, and Jeremy goes to the kid-version while Maria is in with the other moms. He took right to it. His very first day, he didn't fuss a bit. He just went right in and looked for a spot to sit to play with the Play Dough.

We depart early tomorrow morning for Kansas City for Tim's (Drew's brother) wedding! We're nearly ready. Just a few more things to pack...(okay - we haven't barely started packing - but whatever). Next time you all hear from us, we'll be halfway across the country!
