Hunt Club

Today was Lily's third and final field trip of the year to Hunt Club Farm.
So Amy could go with AJ and Mike had already planned to take the day off, he was on
Emma and Logan duty for the morning.


This is what they looked liked when we left for school :)
They had a great time!


Lily was so excited for today but was bummed that she didn't have old shoes to wear. Mrs. Johnson recommended they wear old shoes since it could be muddy at the farm. Lily's shoes that she wears to school are becoming her "old shoes" and a trip to get summer sneakers is greatly needed.
She was sad but didn't seem to bother her once we got there. She was off and didn't stick too close to me at all. She was either hand in hand with Mrs. Johnson or one of her friends. So cool to watch.


I couldn't believe she wanted to hold a chicken. The lady who gave us the "tour" of the farm explained the correct way to catch one and pick one up. I watched Lily as she would chase the biggest of the hens around trying to figure out how to pick her up. Thank goodness Miss Amy caught one and let the kids take turns holding her. While Lily was holding her, the hen seemed as though she fell asleep. Lily was so proud of herself.


After the hen house and second round of hand sanitizer she headed to the goats.


After many more rounds of hand sanitizer and petting of the animals it was snack time.
You can always find Lily hugging one of her friends...yikes.

Before we knew it, we were on our way back to school with our friend Maeve.
Holding hands, of course!


We are so thankful that many of her friends will be in her class next year!
