7 weeks of piano!

Adam just started his 8th week of piano lessons and he has finished his first 2 piano books! I think he was getting bored last week so he tried to play his lessons with both hands.  I told Mr. S. that we have a boy who wants to play with both hands and he said they may start that next week!  Crazy! I was looking through his new book and he will be learning dotted half notes, 8th notes, and the names of the keys by the time he finishes it...might take longer than 7 weeks but he's smart, so who knows?

Field Trip to the pumpkin patch

Adam's class took their first field trip today to Hidden Creek Farm.  Adam was soo excited! He was a little confused as to why we weren't driving to his school first. We had to try and explain that the parents drove their own kids and we would meet them and his teachers at the farm..  Later in the year they will go on a trip where they all get to ride the bus.

They had a couple of animals, a little straw maze, a big pumpkin slide, a dirt hill, and a little corn room with a smaller slide for the kids to play on while we waited for the hay ride.  We had quite a few people on the trip so we had to cram onto the hay ride but Adam sat on Dave's lap and thought it was fun.  When we asked him what his favorite part was, first he said hayride and then he listed everything else he did so..he liked everything!
