Touch-A-Truck

I decided that it would be super fun for the kids to go to the Touch-A-Truck at Tim's Toyota Center. The kids seemed excited to go and check out all the cool trucks...

When we get there, there was a Pepsi truck that was letting the kids get in and honk the horn. the honk was VERY load, but the kids were having fun...so "who cares." Well Gavin really really CARED! He was throwing the biggest fit you have ever seen coming from a four-year old. He HATED the honking and would yell "STOP" everytime a kid honked the horn. After 10 minutes of being at the event, I had ENOUGH!!!!!!! LOL....so we went home.

So, how was the Touch-A-Truck....? BAD IDEA!

Needless to say, Gavin got grounded from the Wii for an entire WEEK. And if you know Gavin, this is a HUGE deal!

Lessons Learned:

• Don't take Gavin to Touch-A-Truck.
• Don't do something that you think your kids will enjoy, because they probably won't!!!!
• Don't take Gavin to Touch-A-Truck
• Eat before you go.
• Don't take Gavin to Touch-A-Truck
• Don't allow kids to honk the loud semi-truck horn.
• Don't take Gavin to Touch-A-Truck

Cheri and Heath

My sister Cheri got MARRIED on July 30th. We couldn't be happier for her. She is such a strong and amazing woman. She was honestly the prettiest bride I have ever seen. She looked phenominal! She married Heath Ferrin, who is a GREAT guy and treats her like a Queen! They will start off with an instant family because Cheri already has a son, Trenton. We are so happy for them and know that they will have an awesome life! CONGRATULATIONS
