Kindergarten Zoo trip

The Olney Elementary Kindergarten classes went to the Abilene zoo a couple of weeks ago. Hunny, Nana Kay-Kay (Kay Dixon), & I all rode together. Nana couldn't resist going after her grandson, Cutter, begged her to go the night before.

Brie was SUPER excited that Hunny was going. (It was extra special having her there). It was pretty darn windy & a little cool, but I think all the kids had a great time. Hunny & I had a very small group of girls that I was in charge of from Mrs. Gibson's class that included Brie (of course), Margarita, & Julia. They were a good group & lots of fun.

I'm going to break here & tell you that after the first or second day of school Brie came home & told me there was this girl in her class whose name was "a drink that Hunny likes to drink". I was a little puzzled at first but then I got what she meant. The little girls name was Margarita..."the drink that Hunny likes". But then once I said her name, Brie said, "Yes, that's it & I bet Hunny would like to drink her!!" Oh my, where she got this I have no idea.

The morning after the zoo, Brie showed me a picture she drew when she should have been asleep. It was a picture of her trip to the zoo.


The top money looking thing is the "ticket", below that is a bird, to the left is the giraffe with it's looon tongue sticking out, below that is the alligator (I'm guessing that is it's tongue), a bird, & the lion.

Also a while back she brought home this book she made in class. It was cute, but I couldn't really tell what she was trying to say on a couple of pages. So, I asked her to read her book to me & it all clicked then!






I'm as "pretty" as a "diamond".





I'm as "hyper" as a "mouse".




& in case you were wondering the two little circles with legs are "jelly fish".
(Don't you just love the lips she draws on people??)
