Field Trip

On the last day before Christmas break, I decided to be a brave teacher and take my class on a field trip up to the nearby fort.  It's about a 45-minute hike from the school.

Here's my pre-hike "what am I getting myself into and why am I not bringing back-up??"face.


A distant view of the fort as we set off.
Since we had just talked about the wise men following the star to find baby Jesus, the kids were excited to pretend we were distant voyagers following the moon to find the fort.


The long walk up.  And up.  And up.


Yay!! We made it!


Enjoying a book and snack when we arrived.


Exploring.


A beautiful view of how far we've come.


There's no place like TOGETHER. <3
