Field Trip to the Hogle Zoo

Last week I got the opportunity to go with Andrew's class to the Hogle Zoo. I was a little nervous when the teacher told me first thing that I had the most rambunctious group. After the bus trip and walk to the pavilion to eat lunch, my goal became to not lose any of the kids. We had a fun time seeing all the animals. The boys enjoyed making the animal noises at the animals and pretending to be each animal. We made it to the end of the day and I didn't lose one boy. We had a few minutes left before we had to get on the bus so I told the boys they could go play on the playground. I turned around and couldn't find Alex. I asked the other boys where Alex was and they didn't know. I looked around and saw him outside the gate walking toward a Weber School District bus. I told the other boys to stay put and took off running yelling for him. Thankfully, I got Alex back and he and all the boys enjoyed running around the playground. We all made it on the bus and back to the school. It really was a lot of fun to be able to be there with Andrew (one more benefit to being an at-home Mom).
