Spring Field Trips

 We went on some great field trips this spring, and it was fun for mom to be able to go on some of them too.  

Mason at Evergreen State College 
Orchestra Festival

Mason spent the day down in Olympia, WA at Evergreen State College.  
His Orchestra was given instruction from Dr. Cobbs from the Tacoma Youth Symphony, and then they performed with 3 other schools (from Kent, Seattle, and Centralia).




Lydia's 3rd grade class to the 
Washington State History Museum

Lydia spent the day in Tacoma at the Washington History Museum.  I got to chaperon these fun 5 kids. 
Hunter, Mckia, Kate, Elizabeth and Lydia
And our group tagged along with another group (pictured below). 
Chaperon: Joelle
Kolby, Jeremie, and Bruce
This is a beautiful museum, with lots of interesting facts about Washington.
The favorite part was dressing up like the early settlers of Washington.

Jacob's Preschool class at 
Sub-Zero Ice Cream!

It was super fun to go see how they make ice cream at sub-zero.  
Tyler's mom and grandpa own the ice cream shop, so we got special treatment!
Sub-zero does a science experiment lesson along with showing us how they make ice cream.  It was neat to see what liquid nitrogen would do to many different things. 
Making ice cream.
Yummy!!!
We are hooked, can't wait to bring back the rest of our family to try it.
