Big day for Nicole yesterday, she had a field trip to The White House and The Smithsonian. She has been looking forward to this trip for weeks now, I don’t think it even bothered her to wake up in the wee hours of the morning. They went in style too, no big yellow school bus, they had a charter bus, WOW!
Nicole said she really enjoyed the trip, her favorite room at The White House was The Great Ball Room. The class had hoped to see the President or First Lady like the group from last year but that wasn’t to be the case this year.
Another of her cool things was listening to one of the parents who chaperoned, apparently he has a passion for history and was giving the scholars a interesting history “lesson”. Nicole said, “He was telling us about history, and he’s not even a teacher!” Who says a child can only learn sitting in at a desk in a classroom? LOL
Nicole had a band concert last Thursday, this was a county wide concert of the elementary, middle and high school band students, and way cool for her because she got to perform at the high school, her biggest venue to date!
The Purple Princess is doing well in school, she made the honor roll this last grading period, and honorable mention the first grading period. That’s the latest news on the girl!
Have a great evening, I'm off to watch the Wizards basketball game. See ya!
