Fieldtrip #2 - Sacramento Children's Museum

Since Arya's school doesn't do Halloween, they decided to have a field trip. It was to an interesting place that had a lot of things for them to play with and learn at the same time. It's amazing how after 19 years of living in Sacramento, I still did not know about the Sacramento Children's Museum. So much changes after having a child.

Snack time. They had goldfish packages and water.

Little after this they went back to class. It was a fun day I think for all of them. Arya passed out on the way home (after Target).

K Field Trip to Upickit Pumpkins

This is Aryas first field trip on a bus with his school. Destination: U-Pick It Pumpkins pumpkin patch.

There were about 50 kids from 2 kindergarten classes and only 7-8 parents. It was a little crazy.

The bus was a little looney tunes since it was 30 min late and all the kids were already antsy.
Once there, the group took a picture and we had all the kids get ready to go on the hay ride.

The hay ride was fun except for the exhaust from the truck. Arya is sitting between Sophie and Amelia, the two friends he's become familiar with since I've been friends with their moms.

Folsom Lake and a bike

Sundays are great when Ali can get away from Happy Wiggles. We can spend time together and enjoy the day.

We took Arya to Folsom Lake to ride his bike and he enjoyed it a lot. There was nobody there except bikers which made me miss my bike a lot, but glad we had the chance to take him. He really loved it.

He also walked around and checked out the squirrels. There were a LOT of them. I guess Sacramento must be the land of the Squirrels! hehe

The weather has been amazing. I almost don't even feel it being Fall. 70-80's and cool nights with a breeze here and there. Though there are some really cold days. So we just need to be careful with those! :)
