Boys and their toys!

The other night, Andy and Papa took the kids to the Heart of Illinois Fair. They didn't go to ride rides or eat the yummy carnival food, they went to watch this:

the tractor pull....






Maybe it's just me, but something about it being so hot, super loud and very dirty doesn't entice me a bit. Thank goodness I was with the girls from church workin' on crafts (and maybe sipping a little slush). That's was a much better way for me to spend the evening.

But, boy did the guys (and Maggie) have fun! And...we all know, what makes them happy, makes us happy!

I grew up on a farm, with lots of farms around me. The annual fair and the tractor pulls were a big deal. Our family always went to them, but we had an outside stadium, so the occasional rainstorm was a problem!
The kids look like they are enjoying themselves!

I just happen to know that the national tractor pull is in bowling green, Ohio...Mr shook's brother lives there. If they are looking for a road trip they could see big time tractor pulling...whatever that means! :)
