and I really wish there was an EXHAUSTED icon!! LOL! 1st thru 3rd grade took a trip to Animal Gardens (check out their website if you feel like it - I'm sure you can figure it out, it is in Delevan, WI). It was fun, but tiring. I chaperoned for Molly's class, so I had Molly and 2 other little girls in my group. Unfortunately, her teacher gave me the one student in the room that is truly a handful. She said she did this because she knew I could handle her, but still..... I am so tired and I have a headache! She doesn't listen, does lots of naughty things (throws rocks, kicks up dirt, talks outloud during a program, the list goes on....). But the shows this place offers are fabulous and the kids truly loved them!! There was an amazing horse show, with dancing horses (one danced to the Lord of the Dance music!) and Arabian Horses, which the girls really enjoyed. I ended up having Katie with me the whole time, too, because somehow, she ended up being chaperoned in a group of all boys - which she was really unhappy about. There was a barn full of baby animals, which the kids all enjoyed and a bird show - with macaws that do tricks and talk. Very cool. There was an Indian that taught the kids about their culture and beliefs, which was interesting, but a bit too long for such little children. All in all, a really nice trip, but very long and tiring. Phew!! Thought I'd share....

Sounds like a fun (but tiring) trip Wendy!
Go make yourself a nice bubble bath and wash the day away!!!
