Our Bee Field Trip

Amanda recently called and asked if Hope and I would like to take a little bee field trip. She and Matt had found a local man tending hives and selling his honey. Of course I jumped at the chance to get some local honey AND see all the inner workings of the process.

What an adventure! We all learned so much that day (I will leave all the technical info. to Amanda's post on this. She is becoming a true bee expert!) I will just leave you with the sweet pictures of the children having a great time learning and experiencing all that goes into the yummy honey they enjoy.

Of course I didn’t tell Amanda I am allergic to bees until after our field trip!

The pictures of Hope in your blog header are too cute.

I am allergic to Bees as well. Their stings that is. =)

First, Lecia, the blog looks great! I haven't been around in a few days so I was surprised when I came over. The header of Hope is ADORABLE! Second, it sounds like you all had a great time but I'm glad that you didn't get stung!

Lecia said...

Thanks ladies for all the kind comments.

Adrian, Our middle daughter loves to take pictures so I must give her credit for the header. I am working on sprucing things up on my blog. Although I must admit, I am not great with directions so it takes me forever to change anything!
