Everyone tells teachers to get the flu shot because we are overwhelmed with germs each and every day, especially at Yellowstone, where ringworm, scabies, and a constant cold are the norm. I got the flu shot, and I also got the flu. This happened to fall the week of the rodeo field trip. In case you thought differently, the rodeo is THE field trip of the year. Each child receives $12 to spend on junk food, soft drinks and cotton candy and make the rounds to the pig races, mutton busting, petting zoo, and the list goes on. This trip is so much fun a week after you've had time to recover. To say the kids and teachers are exhausted after six hours at the rodeo is an understatement. With that being said, I was not able to go to the rodeo with all of my precious little munchkins. My sweet mom and sister, on the other hand, took one for the team and went with the class. See some very entertaining pictures below!
Cowboy hat? Check. Boots? Check. Sprite? Check. I'm having so much fun and not following any rules? Check. Check.
Callie Anne is the best. And, my class' favorite substitute in the world!
As my mom likes to say, this is her fifth child, William. All I can say about this one is that I love him and wish I could have been there for the pig races with him!
I think this is probably toward the end of the field trip...
