We had such an amazing time on our field trip today!  We went the the Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia.  I couldn't wait to share the pictures.  A BIG thank you to Mrs. Caruso.  She arranged for us to go into the butterfly exhibit which we were not scheduled for.  That was sooo fun!!  You can see by the pictures, that the butterflies were very comfortable with us!  

 But boy, I have to say, a field trip wears me out!!!

I hope you enjoy the pictures everyone!!

A butterfly landed on Alexa's head and stayed there for about 15 minutes!

Another butterfly that was comfortable hanging out with Isabella.

A Blue Beauty!

And this was the highlight!  A butterfly landed right on Avery's face!  She stayed calm and let us take pictures of her and her friend. 

One HaPpY group!

These butterflies were even comfortable with the adults.  Look who had a friend hang out with him?
Mr. Wintrode!!
