Our very first Homeschool Field trip

We drove 2 hours to Hampton, VA to attend a Homeschool Appreciation event at the Air & Space museum yesterday.  This was our very first homeschool field trip.

We had so much fun and learned interesting facts.  Did you know that there is only 1/16th gravity on the moon?  Neat.  You know it is a good field trip when parents end of learning as much as the kids do:)

Both little Michael and Kevin had a blast.  They were able to fly a plane and a spaceship thanks to a simulator.  We were able to actually go in and sit down on an airplane and see all the flight controls.  It was a great field trip and tired everyone out.

Little Michael woke up the next day and informed me that he wanted to go on more field trips.  When I asked him where he would like the next field trip to be, he replied~ Space.  He is planning all the details- LOL:)

I took pictures and planned on sharing them but my camera cord has seemed to disappear.  As soon, as it resurfaces, I will post all the pictures of our very first homeschool field trip.

Ya~ Chris found my card reader- so here you go, pictures from our homeschool trip:
