Corning Field Trip

These are just a few of the beautiful of the beautiful glass pieces we got to see on our tour of the museum. I think any of these would make gorgeous wedding gifts. (haha) Also did you notice the Cinderella slipper. I think a glass slipper is just the accessory I need to go with my wedding gown. What do you suppose a girl has to do to get a pair of those? The best part of the field trip was that on our way home just outside of Corning the bus started to act funny. After a few more miles we had to pull over into a parking lot and sit for almost 4 hours and wait for another bus to come and get us. We were supposed to be home at 7pm but we didn't make it home until 10:30pm. Nothing says fun like a 15 hour day with 4th and 5th graders. Luckily there were only 6 kids. Can't wait to do this again!!!

On Saturday, May 10th, I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to travel to Corning to the Glass Museum with a few of my after school students. We got to ride the bus 3 hours all the way to Corning. When we finally arrived we got to sit in on a glass blowing show. It was so neat to see a little "blob" of glass become a pumpkin. After seeing all that went into making the pumpkin it's not wonder they are so expensive in the gift shop.
