A Troop Of Daisies + Humming Birds = Endless Fun

Alexa Daisy troop took a field trip to the Desert Botanical Gardens to take a humming bird tour. I work a lot these days, so it’s a rare occasion where I get to play mom and go to the field trip. Alexa was very excited for this one, so of course I had to go! Alexa has a fun little troop of friends who are also in her Kindergarten class and she LOVES her weekly Daisy meetings. There was also an artist who had an exhibition showing and Alexa seemed more interested in the pieces of art instead of the humming birds. I had to admit I was a little surprised that most of the girls were so interested in the blown glass sculptures, but whether they were looking for art or humming birds they all had a great time!

This one was AMAZING! The artist made all of these different glass balls that looked like giant marbles.

This was one of Alexa's favorites!

This might have been the biggest cactus I have ever seen!

All of the girls got to make a humming bird feeder.

Alexa was very excited about getting her first Daist patch!

We had a great tour guide who made the trip so much fun! He was not afraid to act like a goof if it got him a laugh from the girls.
