Field Trip and Last Day

Yesterday was Eli's final day of Kindergarten!  That also meant, a Field Trip!
Maddie and I were invited to join the group as we toured the brand new Fire Station, ate at Pizza Hut, took the Trolley Tour at Spangler Candy and got ice cream from DQ.  A fun filled day!

We started at the Fire Station.  Assistant Chief Pool gave us a demonstration on how to suit up like a "real Fireman".  Maddie and Eli were both into every word!


They all got to hold the hose and I'm not sure they believed the Chief when he said that it took 2 men to hold it when it had water running through it!


There were several trucks and engines and they got to look at each one and the different things they did.

Eli even sat up in the biggest one.

They even watched Fireman Pool slide down the pole!

 So for a day there were a few extra firefighters around Bryan!

 I had gone on this tour with Nathaniel in Kindergarten, but this year with the new facility, it was pretty fun!

Our next stop was Pizza Hut and I didn't get pictures there.
After lunch we went to Spangler Candy Company for their trolley tour.  Everyone had to wear a hairnet during the tour as we went into the factory and watched them in the assembly lines.

Maddie wasn't sure about the hairnet at first, but she quickly got over it.  She was just a baby when we did this before, this time she really thought it was neat!

Both Maddie and Eli pretended to be the Dum Dum Man, while enjoying a Dum Dum Sucker.


Our next stop was to be the park, but with rain we instead when back to the school to play in the gym for a little while before heading off to DQ for some ice cream!

It was a great day and both Eli and Maddie had a fun time!

It's hard to believe his last day of Kindergarten is over.  His graduation is tonight!  Wow, my littlest little man is getting so big! :)
