Meadowside Nature Center

Hello from the silly girls! This is Lizzie's and Cate's current favorite thing to do: make silly faces for the camera :P

This past week we went to Meadowside Nature Center for a preschool field trip. What a fun morning! The kids loved it. First we walked along the trail and did some exploring.

We reached a clearing by the stream where the kids stepped down onto the stones.

Then the throwing began! Stones, sticks, leaves, you name it.

The kids proudly hold some rocks for the moms to see!

We found some benches along the trail and we managed to fit all the kids onto one. So cute!

And here is Lizzie with her signature face.

When we reached the outside of the Nature Center, we found some birds, including a bald eagle.

I didn't get pictures of the most fun part inside--there's a little "cave" that kids can crawl through, lots of animals (stuffed) shown in natural habitat areas, a little bridge over a stream, etc. The kids loved it! Past this area was a tiny teepee and wooden canoe, another exciting find.

After we were finished with the inside of the Nature Center, we went outside to eat out lunches. What a perfect morning. We can't wait to go back! Lizzie found my camera on the way home... Cate was fast asleep.

And Lizzie had one more funny face for me ;)
