TRUCKS!

A local non-profit held a fund raiser last weekend called "Touch a Truck."
There was a minimal cover charge and kids were allowed to climb on, pretend to drive and blow the horns on about 20 different trucks.  Joshua's excitement was so high he had a hard time not losing control.  He was not keen on having his picture made so most of these shots are on the sly.
 


Please notice the kids covering his ears as Joshua is blowing the horn on this truck.  I don't know if there are words to describe the noise level at this event.

What is more fun that pulling the string to sound the air horn on a big rig? 
Pulling the string 25 times in 30 seconds and holding the last pull as long as it took for us to jump up there and stop him.



This event was really a lot of fun.  From garbage trucks, police cars, and fire engines to cement mixers, dump trucks, bucket trucks and big rigs Joshua (and every other little boy in Starkville) was loving life!

That is the greatest idea ever for little boys! My boys would be in heaven. How fun!

I know another little boy who lives at my house that would have flipped out in excitement at that event. We'll have to watch for it next year maybe. Sounds fun!
