Spring Break Field Trip

Several weeks ago (I know, sorry...), we had Spring Break. One of our fun "adventures" - as Caleb calls them - was going to the Houston Livestock Show with Nana. Caleb was so very excited that he sat down and prepared a checklist the night before. He did this ALL BY HIMSELF - spelling and all. And, yes, we took the list with us and he checked them off at the conclusion of the day. Too cute.

For those of you that have problems reading phonetically, here's the translation:
What I am going to
do with Nana.
I am going to the rodeo.
Ride horse.
Have a war.
Pet a chicken.
Milk a cow.
Drink lemonade.

For the record, we did it all. Okay, so it wasn't a REAL cow that he milked, but it worked for check-list purposes. And, yes, he DID pet a chicken...with one finger through the fencing on the coop. Oh, and the war??? Yeah, Nana obliged and had a pretend one back at our house...ah, life with boys. Enjoy the pics.

    Checking off the list was so very important to Caleb! Wonder where he gets that trait?
    We had a great day at the livestock show--am looking forward to Camp Nana 09--wonder what fun it will bring?

    Very impressive! That Caleb is a smart one. And BTW, can I register my 3 for Camp Nana 09? ;-)
