I chaperoned a trip to the zoo today for Walker's school. Four kindergarten classes - 102 kids total - teachers and a handful of parents braved the Dallas Zoo mob scene. I was prepared for hot flashes, screaming kids, melt downs... the worst. And guess what. It was a blast. We got hot, we screamed, we melted down and still... it was a blast. Walker had a great time with his buddies. We saw lots of animals including some spring babies in the baboon habitat. We caught an African bird with a six foot wing span in flight. We ate lunch together, washed our hands together, used the facilities together and all got home safe. It was a great last day for Walker Starr. We have loved our neighborhood school and are so excited to start first grade!
First we started in class waiting for the bus and working on a color sheet.
Everyone wore a Super Skyview Student shirt!

Some of the students had never been to the zoo before. Yay for first times!
Walker and Colin are super excited.
