Nevada, Iowa Preschool visit
So much has happened since I last posted! I finished my first year at Iowa State University, which is very exciting! I got an internship at the Audubon-Manning Veterinary Clinic (AMVC) in Audubon, Iowa, in a veterinary techinician-like position. I moved back home to the farm, I missed the smell of the animals and the fresh air! Right after I finished finals I headed to the preschool in Nevada for the day. It was 'Rodeo' themed week, and what better then to have some real life cowboys and cowgirls stop by for a visit. Earlier in the week they had the cowboy, so it was my turn. I took in my gorgeous chaps, pictures of Tank (Tankers), and was all decked out which made their day. I greeted the kids at the door then went around to each individual group and told them what I do, and allowed time for some very interesting questions. Many of the students asked what I ate, where I lived, where my horse was, if I rode Tank there, etc. One little boy told me all about his mouth wash even! Kids say the darnest things I guess. I was lucky enough to walk away with over twenty drawings, and a button! A huge thank you to all the teachers, teachers aides, the principal, and the students and their parents. They showed me Nevada and gave me an excellent lunch from a local resturant. I am getting all geared up for the rodeo season to be in full swing. I will be in Elk Horn, Iowa this weekend for the Tivoli Fest Parade, hope to see you there! Enjoy this beautiful weather!
