Sorenson's Pond

Last week I was able to go with Madelyn on a little "reward" field trip. Her teacher, Mrs. Sorenson, had a reading goal for each child. Those that met their goal (all but 3) were able to go. We went to Mrs. Sorenson's house where she has a little pond. The 1st thing Madelyn and I did was to make a turkey using an apple, colored marshmallows, gum drops, etc.
Here's Madelyn's turkey!There was fishing to be done...

and the most favorite part was the paddle boats!

Madelyn had a blast on these paddle boats.


I even took a turn at taking a group around the pond. It was a little harder than it looked. Those things aren't to easy to steer.

I'm so glad I went. It was great to get to know the other mom's of the class and to meet some of Madelyn's new friends. What an awsome field trip these kids had. As much as I miss certain things about our previous schools we've attended I'm pretty sure this kind of a field trip wouldn't have happened at those schools.
