Our Field Trip to the American Royal


 
Last week we had the opportunity to visit the American Royal!  We were all very excited to have the chance to see many animals up close and personal as well as see a rodeo.  When we arrived the Sheriff met us and showed us some rope skills and even had one of our children help him with a trick.  The kids really enjoyed seeing all of his tricks!  We then watched a magician perfom some tricks.  From there we saw many farm animals up close and personal.  Some of these animals included cattle, sheep, horses, donkey, pigs and many more.  We also saw some animals you would not find on a farm.  These included a spider monkey, llama, camal, emu, and zebra.  We then went into the areana to have lunch and watch the rodeo.  All in all we all had a great time.  When we talked about our favorite part of the day some mentioned certain animals, others loved the cowboys, or the rodeo clown, and another favorite was just riding the bus.

I loved the pictures! Abby didn't tell us she was inside the lasso and we wouldn't have known without the blog! I think this is a great way to communicate with parents!

I was so happy to be able to be a part of this field trip, it was Paytin's first one and I was so excited to be part of yet another one of her "first" experiences! The children were wonderful and we had a wonderful time!
