Bridger's Feildtrip!

Bridger had been studying government in social studies this year.  Yesterday I got to go on a feildtrip with his class to our local courthouse to watch the judge in action.  They also got a tour of the jail.  It was very interesting!  Thanks to Annie for watching M&M so I could go!!!

Here is Bridger's class and his teacher, who we LOVE!  Hopefully Bailey gets her next year!

The police officer locked the whole class in this cell

This is the whole class with Judge Walker.  He was so kind to all of us, explained everything that was happening the whole time.  We spent 2 hours watching him go through about 20 small cases.  I can't believe the things people do to get in trouble-what are they thinking?  I gave Bridger the always Choose The Right lecture after!

Today I got to go with Bridger to his middle school orientation!  I don't know who was more nervous, him or me.  How did he get old enough to go to middle school?  After the orientation all the kids were very excited and feeling ready for next year.  I am trying to figure out how to put the brakes on and slow things down a bit!
