Silas's Spring Field Trip

Today was Silas's spring field trip to Plumpers Pumpkin Patch!  They have been learning all about plants for the past couple weeks and so we headed out to the pumpkin patch to help plant next years pumpkin fields.  We lucked out and did not get rained on but it was pretty cold and super muddy  (not that Silas minds that :)   We went for a hayride, checked out all the animals, had a lesson about bees and pollination then headed out to the fields to plant our pumpkin seeds!
It has been so fun listening to the boys talk about it all afternoon.  I just overheard Silas telling Noah all about the bee hive and Noah was asking him lots of questions about it.  Then he said "but Silas, did you have fun at your field trip" and Silas said "yeah, it was so much fun" and Noah said "good, I had a fun day at school too!"   LOVE!!!
Hanging out in the giant barn hearing about all
the exciting things we were going to do!
Planting his pumpkin seeds!
Is it time for hot cocoa yet???
Of course we had to make a Starbucks run afterwards :)
