Field Trip!

My first field trip as a parent. That's what my mom called it tonight. But more importantly it was Maya's first field trip! We had a blast down at the farm today, literally a blast as they had a pumpkin cannon. It sent about five 3 year olds into tears with moms running away holding their babies. Hee hee hee- yup that was mine until I told her it was just a loud noise and she could plug her ears. Then it was better.

The pumpkin cannon!

It was so amazing seeing her interact with little friends and talk with her teachers. Just things I can't see when she is away at preschool. On the very cold and rainy hay ride I was holding her close(it was a little bumpy and did I mention cold!) so she held me close and said I'll keep you warm and then looked up at me and said I love you. I felt so lucky and blessed to be sharing that time with her. Stories from the farmer's wife, snacks of animal crackers and fresh baked zucchini bread, a haystack maze and picking out pumpkins and apples! Hope you have a great fall weekend. I'll leave you with this: I got home from work this evening to find some daddy and daughter bonding time over cards. Warcraft on one side, Scooby Doo on the other. It made me giggle!
