Evan's First Field Trip

Yesterday Evan's class took their first field trip. Evan was really excited because not only were they going to the fire station for the field trip, but Greg was helping out on the field trip. Greg took the day off so he could go along which was nice for Em and I because we didn't have to get out in the cold and take Ev to school or pick him up. We were lazy yesterday morning and slept in a little and snuggled in bed. Oh how I love my Emmers snuggle bunny! Now back to the field trip. Evan was also excited that he got to ride on a school bus for the first time ever! They got to tour the fire station living quarters, watch the fireman put on all his gear, learn about parts of the fire truck and the things they use to fight fires. Plus they also learned a lot about fire safety. They only spent about a half hour at the fire station, but learned a lot. Each kid got to bring home a hat which they thought was cool. Evan was excited to tell me all about it when he got home from school. Greg ended up staying at school after they got back and helped out in the classroom. He also got put on prep work duty and had to make copies for Mrs. Mills while the class was in gym. Hopefully I'll get to go on one of the future field trips! Here's a few of the pictures from the field trip to the fire station.
