One of my favorite things about being a stay-at-home mom is the ability to go on field trips. I LOVE field trips. Today we had one planned. I arrived at school promptly... ready to go, but when I got there the bus was GONE! The teacher told us the wrong departure time, so I drove my car in panic mode to the nature place and arrived about 10 minutes late. I was all in a tither, but Little Chick was just fine. She wasn't worried. She knew I'd come! So glad she had faith in me;)

We got to stomp around in the muddy woods in our cute little...

Rain boots:)
The lakes are still thawing out. But the snow is almost completely gone and the ice is melting:) That's CRAZY. It's usually much later than this...YIPPEE!!!
Did you know squirrels build nests in the tip tops of trees?? I thought they just lived in the holes in the trees. See you learn something new everyday:)

We held snakes, petted turtles and salamanders. It was crazy fun;) I was so proud of my Little Chick for being brave. Some of the boys wouldn't even hold the snake.
