Springtime Preschool Field Trip

This morning was cloudy and damp.  But Julia had an outdoor field trip to attend.  We donned warm clothes and rain boots, and off we went!
 The field trip was at a landscaping place, so the kids were shown various gardening and landscaping tools.  Julia is applauding seeing a leaf blower in the picture below - who knew landscaping could be so exciting?
 Everyone had a chance to touch a garter snake and a baby chick.  Julia didn't need any convincing to touch the fuzzy chick, but I had to help her be brave enough to pet the snake.
 Everyone had a chance to decorate a little flower pot...fill it with dirt...
 ...and then plant three sunflower seeds.  Julia is excited about letting her seeds grow here in Maryland, and then transplanting the flowers to the yard of our new house in Massachusetts.
 Yes, we got dripped on by a bit of rain and it wasn't very warm, but we still had fun!
