Touch a truck

On Saturday a friend told me about "Touch a Truck" sponsored by her township and it was a great activity for the boys. They parked every kind of truck and tractor you could think of and allowed all the kids to climb on, sit in, beep the horn and ask questions to the pros who use them. We even saw the helicopter land before the boys got to climb in and check it out. It was so fun!

Carson's dream come true: driving the garbage truck. You can just see how giddy he is!

I just wanted a picture of the boys in front of the firetruck, but the fireman jumped in too! Tiff, does Jimmy do that too? :)

The helicopter after it landed:
Driving the school bus:




















This was hilarious: the man working the tow truck would lower the hook for each child to grab, then he would swing them around for a minute. It was so funny!



So much fun!

Fun with Daddy!

Now I know why I had such a weird feeling about our original flight schedule and had to change it. We would have missed out on such a FUN week with Daddy!
The boys have been able to go to birthday parties, swim, play at the indoor rec. center pool, go to the Science Center, go to the zoo, go blueberry picking (and eating), Home Depot Day, re-paving the driveway (well not so much with the boys on that one...) and even a trip to Rita's for some Italian Ice, and the best part is that we still have TWO more days left with Daddy. The boys have loved every minute and I know that Kevin has too. I'm not sure he wanted to put all of that on his agenda for his days off, but I know that he has decided it was way worth it and so much more fun than watching Argentina get smoked. :)

I am a bum and don't have pictures of anything except today, but here are a few fun blueberry shots:


Even Cameron tried to pick a few...
This is so random, but on the way to the farm, we saw this family of turkeys in a neighbors hard. There was a Mommy, Daddy (in front but he's behind the house), and NINE baby turkeys. They were so cute!
