Big Tractor Ride

Michael is enamored with any type of vehicle or machine that moves - trucks, cars, tractors, backhoes, trains, bicycles, 4-wheelers, etc...you get the idea.  Well, Michael got the opportunity to ride in the "big tractor" the day after Thanksgiving when my sister was hauling manure (yes manure) on my brother's farm to spread in the fields.  Michael could see my brother running the skid steer on his farm from my parents' window and my sister hauling the manure to the fields.  He was glued to the window and was verbally ecstatic about all of the commotion going on across the field, so Russell finally took him over there in hopes of getting him a ride.  Russell said Michael cried at first when they boarded the "big tractor", but finally settled down and enjoyed the big excursion!

I found Michael earlier in the week in my pantry making himself at home....

And lastly, Michael helping me fold clothes (into balls of clothes I should say)....

I've got to give the boy an "A" for effort!
