Field Trip Day One

We have a very sweet house guest, Flat Stanley.  He came to see us two weeks ago and will be leaving at the beginning of next week. We have been trying to show him a good time while he is staying with us in Birmingham.  Since he will be leaving us this next week, we want to make sure we take him as many places as possible that will showcase B'ham.  In order to do that, we have made today (Monday), tomorrow and possibly Thursday too (weather permitting) field trip days.  Flat Stanley's visit will be in a later blog post with all the details of each place we visited.  For today, we're focusing on a couple pictures of the kids during their field trip.

At the Birmingham Botanical Gardens

Statue of Liberty replica - She's 1/5 the actual size - She was donated by France and put together here in Birmingham.

At Liberty Park (The Boy Scouts of America Wall)

At The Vulcan - K put this magnetic puzzle together.

These were at the Vulcan gift shop and K (our Auburn fan) just HAD to have his pic taken with them.  War Eagle!

Standing on Red Mountain while being blinded by the sun - The city of Birmingham is in the background.

Stay tuned for all the field trip fun and fun facts with Flat Stanley.  I will post it, once Stanley makes it back to his classroom in Columbus, OH.
