Field Trip!

Next to a road trip - a field trip with a group of smart, excited and at times hilarious 3rd graders is a pretty great way to spend half a day.

(Who am I kidding? The ONLY way I am doing a road trip with 22 3rd graders is if it includes ridiculous amounts of alcohol for me and Ambien for them...!! Tee Hee...)

Today I met Matthew's class and teacher Mrs. W at the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh. It was my first visit and man is it COOL in there! Can't wait to go back at a more... ahem... leisurely pace!!! ;)

Here are a few pics of our group, and some of the exhibits. A great bunch of kids!!

*is it just me, or does it seem like someone is giving me the finger here??*
