Today Avery went on his first field trip, he went to the Welsh Apple Orchard just out side of Lake Crystal and i got to go with.
In preparation for the trip, the theme for this week at school was apples, and last night Avery came home and informed me the correct way to pick an apple, "Mom, you don't pick apples, you lift (raises hand) and twist (twists hand)." Lift and Twist, check, got it, but just in case i forgot Avery reviewed with me a few more times though out the night. To say Avery was excited for today was an understatement!

Avery's rooms was a buzz of excitement this morning, for weeks before the field trip Avery was beyond excited, not about the
orchard, but about the fact that he was going to get to ride a school
bus to the orchard! By the sounds of the chatter in his class room all
the kids were pretty excited about riding a bus too.

After the bus ride what was left right, well it was time for the Orchard tour, everyone picked some apples, then we saw how they were washed and sorted then it was time to head back to the bus and go back to school.
