We celebrated Father's Day with Jonathan's family. We joined his parents for the weekend. Our first stop:
The Lathrop Tractor Show.
These were some of the tractors Jonah got to sit upon. He LOVED it. (that is, until Mommy made him stop because he was getting too much sun)
you tractor buffs out there might recognize the cute little Ford in the top corner, or the International in the opposite corner. anybody know what the orange tractor is? that would be Alice Chalmers (which I've learned is the counterpart/rival to Mr. John Deere). I had never heard of Alice Chalmers until I married into the Atkins family. Apparently it is kind of a big deal!
These are some of the more unusual "tractors" we saw:
of course you recognize the bicycle. next to that is a steam engine tractor. on the bottom (l to r) there is a PINK lawnmower, a "custom" tractor/cab, and the tractor pulling cute little kiddies through the fairground.
We wrapped up the weekend with a Sunday afternoon picnic in the park.
Please notice Jonah's cute little outfit.
I should also mention that I am excited to celebrate my own father very soon. Jonah and I have a little something cooked up for him...but that is all I will say about that, just in case he reads this!
Love you, Daddy!



Well, that is BOY HEAVEN right there!! I have to admit--I have been to quite a few tractor shows in my day...but not until I married into Dave's family. :-)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Jonah's shirt! Cute!
