We love the great Oregon steam up! We try to take the boys every year, and they always have a good time. It was nice and overcast so we didn't roast like we usually do, that was nice. It even sprinkled a bit! Felt good, and even a little chilly.
Alex loved the train, and pretty much wanted to do that the whole time. We made it on 3 times, and this one time we ran into a friend who happened to get on before us. She snapped this picture while our trains were passing, and then sent it to me. And, I don't know who that guy is that is behind April, he just happened to be in the picture.
Alex loves to see all the tractors too...
These are just his size!
Daddy got these ear muffs out for him to wear. It can get pretty loud there, as you could see him plugging his ears on the train ride. Apparently we didn't have his muffs for that ride. He actually didn't end up wearing them the whole time. After a while he decided to take them off and he did good!
Time for the kids tractor pull! The kids love to do this every year. They look forward to it, and this year Alex got to do it!
He gave it all he could!
Push! He didn't get a full pull, but he made it pretty far.
Sittin' watching the tractor pull...
Aric's turn! He really pushed hard, and got pretty far. We loved his position while he was going. It was a very determined stance.
Aaron got a full pull, and won the pull off too. He won first place, and got a gift card for McDonald's. He was very proud.
It was another fun year at the steam up!
