How To Make a Carpet Fly…

First, you borrow an idea from the Bridge School Website.
Then you find some stiff cardboard. Ours came from a diaper box (diapers purchased at a warehouse store) and cut it to desired shape:

Today I went with Darius’ class to a pumpkin patch that’s pretty close to our house. The good news is that going with a school, admission was free. The bad news is, if you go individually, it’s $12 just to get in. The good news, Cottonwood Farms is not the most expensive pumpkin patch out there.
The first thing we did when we got there was go on a hayride.
With all the strollers & chairs, there wasn’t a lot of room for hay. It was a bouncy ride, and nearly every child fell asleep, except Darius – he loves bouncy, and was having a blast!
Next, we went to feed baby goats – well little goats, anyway. They ate grain out of an ice cream cone, then ate the cone. I Don’t really have a decent picture of it, but, here ya go:
We were getting ready to go, and saw this cow bench, just begging to have it’s picture taken with us.
We took a couple versions of a class picture. This is the one, I thought, turned out best…
…But this one has more people in it:
…Sam’s Dad, Timmy, Angie, Timmy’s brother, & Timmy’s grandmother.
After taking this last photo, everyone went & loaded the vans while I bought a couple of pumpkins for our house – the children each got a freebie. We had to get back to the school for lunch.
