Shark Tooth Creek

On Friday, Abby's class had a field trip to Shark Tooth Creek!

Abby has been hearing about this place for 2 years now, ever since Nate & I went. Needless to say, she was excited! Not to mention that she got to ride in her friend's "bus!" (They have a large family, and recently bought a 16 seat passenger van. It is awesome! We put all the girls from Abby's class plus their moms in there for the hour ride to Aliceville. So fun!)

Silly girls

Riding the Shark Tooth Creek Express - beware, Mr. Ken is a crazy driver!!

Miss Priss found her first shark tooth!

The water was VERY chilly, but she didn't care! She had fun hunting for shark teeth & other treasures.

My girl.

Buds Mia & Jonesy

Blondies!

Both 1st grade classes - quite a group!

After our time was over at the creek, each child was asked to sort through the teeth they found and only keep 10 of the best ones. (And the rest we gave back.) Abby had a hard time deciding!!

The tooth that got her in the "X" club

We really lucked out with the weather....although it was a little chilly & windy, the sun was out the entire time and we got to have a great picnic lunch and some free time. Then, we boarded the Shark Tooth Creek Express one last time to head up the hill to Play World at Mr. Ken's house.

1st grade buddies: Jonesy, Cate, Mia, Indya, Abby & Erin

She loved the zipline!!

Taking a breather

On our last stop, Mr. Ken took us to the "top of the world." What a view!

Mr. Ken and all the wild kiddos

We got to walk down the hill to our cars, so of course Abby took that opportunity to pick flowers!

Great minds....

Happy girls headed home after a long & fun field trip!!
