This weekend, it's been doing nothing but, you guessed it, raining.....so here's a post about last weekend. We went on Saturday morning to an event called "Touch A Truck" that our neighbor told us about (Thanks, Cindy!!). It's basically a huge collection of trucks, just like the ones we've been reading about in Gus' many, many truck books. So last Saturday, he got to see them all for real and play with some wheel-related toys. It was a HUGE hit with our little trucker. I've labeled the various trucks, in case you're not as up on your truck names as we are:)

Playing on the car mat.
Concrete mixer (a highlight!)

Gus, your Uncle Jim will be forever jealous that you got to have an experience like this at such a young age...it would have been a dream come true for him! My compliments to your Dad and Mom for making this possible for you!!
Okay, I'm 3 posts behind, loved the trucks, the Gusisms and the rainy day trip, but how did you do all that shopping for $.02?? One of life's little victories!!!!! Hope all is well, Kip's on my mind, can't wait to love her so I already started.

Wow! I’m sure you didn’t regret going to “Touch a Truck” because your son looked so happy on the photos. He was able to see different trucks and was able to ride on those at the same time. Look at how he is amazed with that huge street sweeper truck. Haha!
