Field Trip!

Today was field trip day for Olivia.  We dropped Hannah off at school.  A very disappointed voice quietly from the back seat "Man Olivia I wish I could come with you."  Of course sister reassured you that we would check it out and see if would be a fun place to go back as a family. 

Olivia you were so stressed about being late for your field trip.  I think you were just used to being at school at 7:45am before the carline even starts.  Today we dropped Hannah off at 8am so when we go to your school I could just stay with you.  I got a time check from the back seat every minute on the dot along with a reminder that we had to be there by 8:30am.  No matter how faithful I am to my word you still have your doubts but we made it with plenty of time!

We set out to the Moravian Cookie Factory.  It was the oldest building with the oldest office furniture, oldest computers, oldest phones, etc.  I got the impression after about 30mins that the only thing keeping the kids attention was all the cookies they let you try.  After about an hour we were off to CiCi's Pizza. 









The teachers do a great job of not only treating you like little adults but also like it is a real treat to get out.  They let you all serve your own food, drinks, dessert and pick your own seats.  I guess I felt like even though I was there you should get all the priviledges of the party so I let you go at it.  Before we left you had 2 pieces of pizza, 4 breadsticks, 2 brownies, 2 bowls of croutons (yes plain croutons?) and 2 cups of Dr. Pepper.  Wow you would think that I never fed you. 

I sat with you and about 7 of your friends.  All the girls giggled and talked about who was boyfriends with who.  I was amazed to see two kids holding hands and hearing you guys say that they looked like they were out on a real date.  WHAT!?!  Can't even believe you all know what all that means at such a young age.  Then of course we all talked about Justin Bieber and he's my boyfriend I went to see his movie, no he's my boyfriend I went to see his concert, no he's my boyfriend I celebrated his birthday yesterday......  Girls!  I had to go sit with the teachers!

It was a fun day. I was proud to see how well you all behaved and how well you did on the bus ride.  We surprised Hannah by picking her up a little early from school.  She was happy to see us and everyone was very tired.  Fast to sleep after a long day!

Oh and did I mention that you were very specific about wanting your hair parted to the side in a small ponytail and the rest down today?  Yeah and so tonight we put it back for dinner and add that to the large sweatshirt your daddy let you wear I got a glimps of what you will look like when you are setting off to college :{  I guess minus the missing tooth!
