Friday was a glorious day. We packed our usual picnic lunch before the kids got to school. We had a light breakfast and then proceeded to go to Audubon Park in Kentucky, just across the bridge. It was a misty kind of cool rainy day, and the kids were excited about being out in it. We met Miss Jackie ( a friend of 30 years) at the museum, and we headed out into nice nearly fall weather.
We first encountered a millipede - in fact - we encountered several millipedes! The park was covered in them. We saw all kinds of bugs, leaves, nuts, and mushrooms. We even sang mushroom songs. The kids wandered here and there on the trail looking at different interesting wood stuff with little magnifying glasses. It was great fun.
We finished our tour and headed up to the playground where we ate nearly everything. We had tuna, egg, bologna, cheese, peanut butter sandwiches - chicken salad for adults - watermelon, carrots, pickles, and chips. The kids had a last minute dash - a race - and Garrett, Ayden, Reese and Jayce won it.
We moseyed back to school and played several things the rest of the day.
Jill and Reese won the Knowledge Bee. Gold beads will be given out on Monday.
We ended the day with Chocolate brownies and ice cream. Great day!
