Our Fabulous Field Trip

The second grade at my school has been "adopted" for several years now by an incredible company, HICORP.  I think they are a gift straight from heaven!  They provide supplies, parties, gifts, and most importantly, they provide TIME with our kids.  Amazing people!

When the kids got off the bus, the HICORP employees made an arch for them to run through and cheered them on!  Inside, they learned about their company ~ and even had to recall what they learned!
Mr. Brad told them that they had to READ and make good choices and they could grow up to work for him!  But if they don't read and learn how to follow directions, he won't hire them! Loved it!

After the tour of the company and warehouse, outdoors we went for fun and lunch!  It was the perfect day for an outdoor field trip!
Pizza, water, cookies ~ all we could eat!  Fabulous!  We lined the kiddos up on the curb ~ asked if they were thankful? YES!!! And then we ate!



HICORP spent the afternoon playing football, softball, chalk art, jump rope, tug-a-war, and so many other activities with us!  Just love all these pics!

Kids will be kids ~ Give them a hill and they'll roll.
These buddies figured out how to pull apart 2 hula hoops and make one hoop big enough for all 3 of them to play with!  Future engineers.
We laid on the hill and found the coolest shapes in the clouds.
We had as much fun as the kids!
Before we got on the bus to go back to school, everyone got a root beer float and we took a huge group picture with HICORP.  What a perfect ending to our field trip day!

Happy Kids!
