Fun at the Fish Hatchery

It was absolutely beautiful here today so I took the kids to the Nimbus Fish Hatchery up by Folsom since it's mostly outdoors. November is a great month to see all of the salmon. For 5 cents they give you a handful of fish food to feed the salmon and Anna had a blast doing that. We both were wet from all of the salmon jumping out of the water! Ben was happy as long as we fed him snacks as well =). There was an elementary school class there on a field trip and Anna followed the "big" kids around. When we were walking back to our car we ran into a man who was taking his lamas for a walk along the American River Trail =).

We're bringing snack to school tomorrow so Anna and I winged it and tried to come up with something entertaining for the kids using stuff we could find in our pantry and refrigerator. We made muffins again b/c the kiddos seem to like those and we tried to make happy faces out of fruit. If anyone has any fun ideas for preschool snacks let us know!
