Outdoor Class

I'm so glad the weather gave us a break yesterday afternoon! Brandon has really been enjoying his class with Mrs. Slone and Nicholas, Megan, and I have been enjoying our time with friends at the park! Yesterday's group was much smaller since some of our friends were out of town or had appointments, but it was still great fun!

The location has changed to one that lets our class go off-trail so we had the chance to explore a new park. We took off on the trails with Cathy and Sarah. It's really a beautiful park! I can't wait to go back next week!

We saw several of these caterpillers:

Megan took them off the path and put them in the grass :)

I'm loving my new camera :) Check out that zoom!

Cathy and her family left a bit early for an appointment so we wandered over to where the big kids were. They were working on huts and I wanted to see what they had built. Mrs. Slone divided them up into three groups and they made huts with ponchos, but, of course, I didn't photograph those! UGH! I did, however, get these:

That shelter is Brandon's group which had Kyle and Luke in it. I thought each group had a different obstacle but they didn't. The only rule was it had to take under fifteen minutes. Each group had the same supplies and still each group built a different shelter. Cool! Next week they are building debris huts. They are going to have so much fun! There's a natural play area that they will be wandering into for that.

Nicholas was trying to sneak closer so he could hear what Mrs. Slone was saying:

Megan enjoyed the water for a while:

Oh, and fishing is allowed in that pond! Hmmm....
