Field trip week

Last week Carter had what his school calls immersion week. His immersion was on Pioneers and they took a field trip each day centered around pioneer activities. I went with him to drive and chaperone on Tuesday when his field trip was at Four Mile Historic Park. I guess the oldest home in Denver is located there. It was fun to see him interact with his classmates. They did pioneer chores like washing clothes with a washboard, sweeping, and banging out rugs. They also fed the chickens, made butter from cream, panned for gold, and did some pioneer games. Carter had a really fun time and it was great to spend the day with just him, while McKay played at a friend's house.
