Keep On Trucking

The kids were playing outside today and doing one of their favorite activities: riding a Tonka Dump Truck down the hill in the backyard. They developed the game about two years ago. It started out as the boy pushing the lass around in the truck. She was sitting in the bed and he pushed it backwards around the yard. Along the way, they started going down hill and he couldn’t keep up with her as she started picking up speed. He actually slid the final ten feet on his belly; laughing the whole way. The lass was laughing just as hard. Shortly after that, they were taking turns riding down the hill with it. They haven’t stopped since.

Now, their both about 20 pounds bigger. But they still fit in the truck and they still enjoy riding down the hill in it.

I still enjoy watching them.
