Tractor Pull and A Week on the Farm!

Last weekend we went to the Platte County fair to watch the truck and tractor pull.  All four of my boys LOVED it!!!

 

The first thing we had to get was root beers.  Zane loves that they have a cork and you can get refills for $1!

Mason on the elephant ride.  We didn't know the other boy, he just rode with him!

Bryce loved it!  He would just wave and wave at the tractors!

Sunday afternoon Matt's parents came down to get the boys.  This was the week for getting my classroom ready.  The last few years Matt's parents have taken the boys for a week when my school has its fundraising golf tournament and I use the week to get my classroom back-to-school ready.  They are amazing in doing this.  I don't know how else I could get all this work done!  We took advantage of the quiet week by taking in two movies, eating out multiple times, shopping, and doing a little home improvement.  I even talked Matt into building me some cubbies for my classroom, which turned out AMAZING!  I am so lucky and very thankful!  Here are some pictures from the boys' week on the farm:

Zane's school librarian wants photos of kids reading in unusual places, so here's Zane reading in a tractor (with little brother making sure he gets in the mix).

Crafting time!

Look at the concentration!

Monster truck time!

What a great week the boys had with many many amazing memories they will cherish forever.  We are so thankful for amazing parents that love to spend time with the boys!  We really enjoyed our week of adult time, but are glad to have our boys back home!  This week I go back to work so we are going to try to enjoy our remaining days together!
