DJ's 1st Grade Field Trip- Hutchen's Elementary, Mobile, AL

I am so glad that I get to stay home with the boys, especially when I get to go on fun field trips. DJ’s school trip was downtown at the Exploreum, a science center/museum for children.
It’s hard to believe that it’s Feb 22nd & it was 77 degrees. I shouldn’t complain since back home they’re getting snow & ice, but I did find it a little too humid! I am sure anyone back home that is reading this is feeling bad for me right now, aren’t you?
The Exploreum is currently featuring a giant bug display as you will see in the following picures. DJ showed me all the bugs he liked and then posed for me as I took pictures of him with all of them. The children just finished learning about butterflies, so I got to hear all about them. I hope that DJ continues to be as excited about learning new things as he is right now!

DJ & his classmate then got to run around & explore the hands on science center. For lunch, we walked across the street to the bay to sit with our brown bags. It was great not only were there trains going by behind us, but we could look ahead & watch the boats on the water. They really do have some nicely planned out field trips. Everyone seemed to have a good time.
Jack also had a good time. He got to spend the morning & part of the afternoon with his friend Emily. I feel so fortunate that we have met so many nice people since we have moved down here!
