Preschool

Logan started preschool this fall. He's going to "Rainbowland." It's just a preschool at a church here in Canonsburg. He goes Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 2 1/2 hours. So far he is really liking it!

Ready to go on his first day!

He was very excited. Justin came home from work for lunch and took him for the first day. Tolan wanted to be in a picture too. (I love how they are both dressed for completely different seasons!)
One of the first things they did was a fall field trip to Simmons Farm. (Actually, the first thing they did was a fundraiser. Yeah. I know.) Thanks to Grandma Shook for babysitting Tolan & Ella - I got to go with him. We went on a hayride, then we went out in the pumpkin patch & each picked a pumpkin, then we went into the cornfield to pick Indian Corn. After that they got to play in a hay maze, 100 ft. slide, and an old firetruck. Then we took the hayride back & got to choose an apple & sample some cider.

He spent most of the time playing on the firetruck.

The weather was really nice that day & I think everyone had a good time. This is where we took the hayride to:

The next big activity they had was a bowling party. The parents are asked to sign up to help at 2 parties & I signed up for this one. Here's an action shot:

Really, with preschoolers bowling there is not a lot of action. They can barely get the ball down the lane! The most action is the employees going up & down the lanes to fetch the bowling balls that don't make it! But they had a good time

Logan told me later that it was "fun except for when it wasn't my turn." There was a lot of waiting around involved for the little kids. But bowling alleys always have lots of loud music so they spent most of that down time dancing to the music from the 50's that was playing. You can see Logan in the background there gettin' down with his friend Ella.

And of course, it's not preschool without snacktime!

It was fun to see Logan interacting with the other kids in his class and having a good time. He's getting to be so grown up!
Here is a picture of his class:

(and I'm still trying to figure out why I have to bring 10 snacks when there are only 7 kids in his class...)
