glen park field trip

today i was able to join afton and the rest of the 3rd grade on a soil erosion field trip. we went to glen park, which is an amazing park with a beautiful waterfall hidden in a neighborhood a couple of miles from our house. it's really lovely to drive down that street and look over to see gushing water falling. i didn't realize what i had signed up for. i thought we'd just be walking around the park looking at dirt. well i was sorely mistaken. we climbed rocks, we crossed streams, explored a forested area, and did i mention crossing streams? the group of girls i looked out for really loved crossing streams by jumping from rock to rock!
here are the 3 cutest 3rd grade girls!
i had no idea afton loved hiking and climbing rocks so much. we are definitely going to take ryan and ella there to show them around.

i am so glad i was able to put on my brave, adventurous feet and follow these girls around. it was a very fun and new experience for me!
