Bank

This was our first year to tour a bank and it sure was interesting!  Dana and Julia (Grace's mom) showed us the different areas of the bank.  The kids didn't get to go in the vault, but they did get to peek through the bars.  They got to see the drive-up window person in action, where all of the daily transactions are stored and where the board of directors meet.  Julia also showed the kids a machine that counts and rolls your money for you.  As the kids left, they were each given a coloring book, bag of popcorn and a sucker!

Grocery Store

We got to the grocery store bright and early to take our tour.  Samuel was extra excited because he got to be with his grandmother, Christine, who works at the store.  We looked at the different areas of the store, then the kids each got a turn to pretend they were the clerk.  Upon leaving, they were treated to an apple and fruit snacks.

EMS/Ambulance visit

On Friday, 4 of our EMS workers came and talked to us and showed us how they use some of the equipment in the ambulances.
