Guinea Pig Show-N-Tell.

 
McKenzie's been bugging me all year to bring her guinea pigs to school for show-n-tell.  Her teacher gave her permission many months ago that it was ok but I've been procrastinating on this one.  Tomorrows the last day of school and her teacher said it was ok to bring them in today.  They spent a good part of the day in the office because I had to take Callie to swim lessons.  I don't think the little critters would have appreciated waiting in a scortching hot car while Callie finished her swim lesson and to be honest with you, I don't think they really appreciated waiting in the schools office in the confined comfort of a small laundry basket that I had provided for them during their transport.
 
McKenzie did a great presentation and all the kids enjoyed getting a turn at holding one of them.  I had provided some lettuce and each child had the opportunity to feed one.  It was a huge hit.  What child doesn't enjoy feeding a cute little critter?
 
They arrived safe-n-sound and are resting peacfully in their home now.  I rewarded them a bowl full of fresh lettuce for doing such a great job.
