Kids working...playing... hard

We are in Statesville this weekend. Corby is doing a soccer tournament here, so me & the kids tagged along to spend some time with family. When we pulled up in MamMaw & PaPaw's driveway last night, Chandler was beside himself excited because PaPaw's big truck (he drives an 18 wheeler) was in the driveway with a trailer hauling a huge tractor. He couldn't wait to get out of the van. All he talked about last night was what he wanted to do to work on that truck today. He played... literally... all day long in the truck. He took a few breaks to jump on the trampoline and help PaPaw work on the house, but he worked "so hard" (in his own words) on that truck today. He was in & out & hooked up chains to his the bicycles & ride on toys in the yard. I had to use Goop hand cleaner tonight to get all the filth off his hands they were so dirty and they still didn't come clean. PaPaw took all the boy cousins to deliver the tractor this morning in northern Iredell County. That was a big treat to get to ride in the truck. There was 125 pounds of air in the air horn on the truck and Chandler used every last bit of it until the horn couldn't blow another peep. They had fun & that's what counts. Carter enjoyed most of the day jumping on the trampoline with his little cousin Nathan. I'll try to post some picutures tomorrow when we get home.
