touch a truck!

One of the kids' favorite activities every year in Indiana was the Hands on Trucks event.  As usual, there was a similar but SO MUCH BETTER event in E'ville this weekend at Touch a Truck at Township park.  Rather than sweltering on a paved parking lot in August, we enjoyed a beautiful fall day walking around the park.  And as usual, the kids had a great time.  Kids love trucks!

I asked charlotte what she wanted to see first and she didn't hesitate - the PINK TRUCK!!

Then we boarded the school bus.  Colin didn't bother with this one, he "already rides the bus."  Big man on campus. 

They both enjoyed swinging off of this tow truck :)

Colin got to climb in the cab of a few big rigs...

including this garbage truck that was literally the one that used to come to our rental house as we "know" the driver.  Edwardsville.

And then Charlotte tried to steal a fire truck.
