A Wintery Airport Field Trip

The other day Alayna's preschool class had a field trip to the Provo airport. Alayna was so excited for this field trip that she kept counting down several days before hand. The day of her field trip she woke up excited to go. Amber and I didn't have the heart to tell her that there was a new layer of snow on the ground.
 
Despite the cold weather and snow, the preschool class trekked to the airport. Alayna had a great time learning about airplanes and helicopters. She even got to sit in the airplane.
 
Another part of the field trip that Alayna was very excited about was the planned picnic at our nearby park. However, due to the wintry conditions, they decided against having lunch at the park. Luckily, Amber was there as a chaperone to the field trip. She had Alayna invite several of the kids in her class to come to our home and have a picnic on our playroom floor. This broke the group up enough that the remainder of the children could go to preschool teacher's home for their picnic.
 
Alayna and several of the girls had a great time eating their sack lunches and laughing and talking. It was the perfect end to their wintry aviation field trip.
