First Grade Field Trip


Yesterday Mark and I went on a field trip with his first grade class to the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in downtown Raleigh. We are very familiar with this museum, as it is Mark's favorite. We've been many times over the past few years since he has loved dinosaurs and sharks. But today was extra special since we were with his class. They had a scavenger hunt around the museum, which was designed to help them learn. We had a good time!

8 Years in Wake Forest (Part 3)

And here are a few photos of our kids at the Action Hero Night at Chick-fil-A Wake Forest. Brett was in the hospital, and I was with him, but Rob took Mark and Gantt to have some fun.

Gantt wasn't scared of baby cow at all !
