Field Trip to CHOM

Last Thursday, three classes from UWACS headed to Tuscaloosa for what proved to be a fun and exciting day! Let me begin by saying that I was to drive the van for this trip and I was a little nervous... My co-teacher and three kids were the only passengers - all the other kids met us there! The day began without a hitch - car seats in, kids loaded, a quick prayer and we hit the road :) I was as nervous as an elephant in a china shop - and I made it :) When we arrived, I dropped the kiddos and Ms. Olivia off at the door where Sara met us. After getting the van parked, I headed in - and forgot the name tags - and I headed in - and forgot the money... thirty minutes after our arrival, I finally made it in! The place was so cute... we did five exhibits - grandmother's attic, DCH mini hospital, Beaver Bend, Art Studio, and the tug boat... the kids loved every exhibit although I think they were partial to the boat :)  - I might have liked the boat, too!

The trip was great. As much as I count down to graduation, I will truly miss my job, my co-workers, and my kiddos... as my first class, they will always hold a special place in my heart!
