Field trip day for the first graders today. We rode the front runner up to the Treehouse museum in Ogden. The kids got to put on a play of the three little pigs (slightly different then the original version). Jacob was the prince charming on a horse.



They also got to learn about Kings, Queens and knights and make their own magic wand or sceptor. After all of that they got to play in the museum in their groups for awhile. We had never been up this museum before and are now planning on going back it was a lot of fun. I ended up with a ton of cute pix but I try to only post my kids unless I have permission so here are the ones I got of just Jacob.

Milking a cow.



Riding a bull.



Driving the fire truck.



And tracing.



After the museum we walked over to the Ogden temple and ate lunch in the backyard of the Miles Goodyear cabin built in 1845 in the Ogden Canyon. It has been relocated there next to the pioneer museum. The kids were surprised that the entire cabin was about the size of their bedrooms at home. It was a lot of fun and something that I would highly recommend if you are looking for a fun outing for your family everything was within walking distance of the ogden frontrunner station so you could make a whole day of it train ride and all. We will be heading back up there as a family again sometime soon Jacob was already planning our trip on the way home today. Hope everyone is doing good and that you all had a great holiday weekend.
