The day started off fine.......

Reece had his field trip to a helicopter business last week Wednesday. They were treated to a tour to see the helo's, the paint shop, and even got to sit in the Heliworks helicopter. After explaining what his business does, the VP of the company opened it up to the preschoolers to ask their questions. This started a barrage of fiery death scenarios involving "what if" situations. What if the propellers fall off, what if the helicopter catches on fire, what if the windows fall out, what if what if what if? I think I heard him say three different times, "then we would die." When he walked us over to the paint area, the first question out was " What if you run out of paint?" ha ha
This is a collection of Reece's classmates called the Curious Cats


Hanging out on the GIANT airport firetruck



The field trip was to then go to a playground, have a picnic lunch and hang out. That would've been nice, had I not returned to my car and had a completely flat front tire. Long story short, we couldn't find the spare, called a tow truck, had to have the kids take a hotel shuttle to the playground, rode with the tow truck weirdo to the tire shop, found giant nail in my tire, repaired it and went home to place cucumbers on my eyes and forget all about this field trip.

Love that one of the kids all hanging off the bar. How super mom of you to have Reece's band-aid color-coordinated with his shirt.
