I am really late on this field trip Friday post.  Shane is home and we are all trying to cram as much ‘fun time with daddy’ as we can.  It seems that blogging gets put on the back burner while he is home! Our most recent Friday was a total chill day with our favorite homeschool …

Alex and Ava were both so excited for this weeks field trip.  We were headed to a fire station and bringing their cousin along with us! Our firefighter tour guide was great.  He was more than willing to answer all of the kids questions. After we toured the inside (sorry no photos Audrey was on …
