Today we traveled to Ft. Worth for a tour of Mrs. Baird’s Bakery with our Homeschool Co-op.
Trying to get everyone accounted for and carpooled took a little bit of effort.
So did getting directions to everyone and explaining how we would get there.
Here is A taking pictures for the Yearbook.
Here is another picture of A. I just liked this one!
When we got there we were excorted into a room for instructions. We also were “dressed” for the occasion. We had to put on hair nets and hard hats. The hard hats had ear phones attached ot them so we would be able to hear our tour guide once we were in the factory. The factory was too loud to hear her otherwise.
Aren’t we beautiful? I am sure we are making the designers in Paris jealous! LOL!
We were not allowed to take pictures inside the factory but it really was a fun field trip. It was really fun to see how they mass produced bread, hamburger buns etc. After the tour they took us back to our little room and fed us fresh baked bread with butter. They took an entire loaf and cut it in forths, buttered it and handed it to us. It was fabulous!
After we left the factory the moms went to a bread store right next to the factory. This is what the kids did.
All in all it was a great day. Fun field trip, fun with friends and a learning opportunity all at once!
