Last day of Preschool

Today was Boston and Preston's last day of preschool. It has been such a good year and they have had so much fun and have loved every minute of it. One day I was telling Boston that school was going to be over and he started to cry and said he wanted to keep going. They had such great teachers, who were so nice and so patient with all the little ones. Today they did a little program where they sang and few songs they had learned and showed how they knew the pledge of allegiance. Preston did so good and sat with his class and sang the songs. Boston got a little shy when he realized all the parents were there watching and would not go sit with the class. Finally when we got him to go sit down he just sat there with a frown and would not participate. Oh well. Here is a few pictures from the day. Boston still happy before he realized everyone was watching him. Preston waiting to sing some songs. This is when Boston finally went to sit with the class. Notice how unhappy he is. And that is their best friend from class, Nash, sitting next to Preston. Boston and Preston with Miss Wendy. Boston and Preston with Miss Cris. Preston saying the Pledge of Allegiance.

Field Trip

Last week Boston and Preston's pre-school class went on a field trip to Hardy Farms which is a dairy farm here in Brigham City. They got to see how they milked the cows, saw the mother cows about to give birth, and some baby calves. Preston's favorite part were the baby calves. Boston favorite part were the baby calves and"Red" the farmers dog that followed him everywhere. The dog was very friendly and Boston loved petting it and wanted it to come and walk by him. While we were there I had to answer some questions from Preston that I was not prepared for or expecting that day. When we went to see the pregnant mother cows there was one there that the farmer thought would give birth at anytime during that day. Well Preston noticed it's utters. They were really swollen and he asked why they were so big. I tried to explain that it was about to have a baby and that is where the baby would eat from when it was born. Then he asked me where the baby calf was going to come from. He asked "Is it going to come out by its mouth or back there by its butt" I explained what end it would come out and he was ok with my answer. Luckily that is as far as the questioning went. I know someday I will really need to have better answers but that day I was not quite ready for him to be asking me it. I just thought it was kind of a funny story though that maybe I would like to remember.
Boston and Preston would not stand anywhere near the cows and would not let me take their picture by one. According to Preston that is too gross to have your picture taken by a cow. But they each wanted to take a picture of a cow themselves. So here are the pictures that they took to remember their field trip.
