Ty went on his first field trip this week. The field trip was taking some salmon babies that they had raised since they were eggs to a creek in Stanley Park and releasing them, then playing at the park. It was totally different for us in that we walked the whole way--no buses for this one :) I would say it was probably about a 1.5-2 mile walk there and then the same back. Which doesn't sound that bad, but with kindergarteners, they were pretty tired by the time we got back :)

After adding some creek water to each cup, the kids had to count to 60, with their hand on top so the fish didn't jump out, to let the fish adjust to the water.

I love Em's "8" pancake. I love their first day of school pictures (especially the side shots). I love Ty's baseball pics. He is precious.
But I really LOVE the field trip. Releasing salmon in a stream! Wow! How cool is that?
It looks like the kids are getting used to their surroundings. I'm so glad they like their classmates and teachers.
I'm praying for you and your family as you continue to adjust to your new city. Keep posting pics, please.
