Field Trip to Texas Road House with Alexis!

This year for a field trip Alexis' first grade class went to Texas Road House Grill. She had a really fun time with all her friends. They had several stations that they were able to visit. The first station they were read a book and then were able to draw with chalk on the floor of the restaurant. Of course they thought that was fantastic. Alexis drew an armadillo which was what the book was about. I think she did a pretty good job. After that they went in to the meat closet and got to see how a steak was cut. Then they got to see a lady make an awesome blossom. Alexis did not want to try it of course but sh did anyway and spit it out. She was not impressed.



Next the kids were each given a piece of dough to shape their own roll. Alexis made her roll into the shape of a heart. They will be able to eat the roll they made when we have lunch.


Next it was time to learn some line dancing. Of course this was Alexis' favorite part. She loves to dance. After the dancing they went on a little scavenger hunt looking for things in the restaurant. Then it was time for lunch. I had a chicken salad and the kids had chicken fingers and fries. I think I would have rather had the kids basket! Alexis' roll turned out great. We had a really fun time today. I'm glad I was able to go with Alexis and all her friends.
