A No-Dull Torrentially Rainy Tuesday

Today, the rain began early early early in the morning, and it wasn’t supposed to quit until tonight! But, the Kindergartners were scheduled to go to Fire Station 27 and I was to chaperone along with a few other mommies and daddies

We were sure it would be canceled. But…. they wanted us to still come! So we fought the rain and flooded streets, and visited their fireman-cave.

There she is with Charlotte. They just loved their new hats.

Now it was time to board the truck.

Test out the water hose! Tyler, fire guy, had to hold it because it was stronger than 10 Tatums.

Now he showed us how he transforms into a firefighter in seconds. Boots go on first. The gloves last. Unbelievable how heavy their gear is.

We sure did enjoy going, Mrs. Holman. And we loved our class shirts they all created!

 

Now, when we got back to school, we found out school was cancelled due to the flood, so hooray! It’s a Tatie and Mommy day.

I gave her a new boy for her doll house. She wanted a little boy, and she deserved a new toy after her kindness on the field trip.

She played, I worked for a few minutes since I had a bunch to do and I wasn’t expecting her to be home with me.

Ok, now it’s time we did a puzzle. Corners and borders first, love.

Then she wanted to take pictures. She’s trying to master the close-up. This magna tile got the honor. It’s magna-ficient. haha.

She then colored a picture. And her coloring just is so…..well, colorful!

Then it was time to paint!


Ok, now we needed to celebrate our trip, so we would draw a firetruck (rulers for exacting), then we tested the new watercolor pencils. These things are so fun. You color with them then add water.


The rest of the day, she just made me laugh and laugh.

This kid of mine…  Not one dull moment. We made the BEST of our rainy day.
