A day in the country!

We have been trying to get out to my Uncle Steve and Aunt Beck's house for a couple months now and finally made it today!!!  Noah has been asking continuously to go to Uncle Steve's and I am so glad we finally made it happen.  Uncle Steve's "man cave" (aka giant shop/barn) is every little/big boys wildest dreams come true!!  There are about 15 (probably more) motorcycles of all shapes and sizes, tractors galore, all kinds of bikes, trikes and toys alongside "real" engines, jeeps and old trucks, seriously cool!  Not to mention they live out in the country with acres where the boys could just run crazy!  They met a few dogs & horses, played in a little mud and had a super fun day!!!  Bonus for me, I got to hang and have a beer with two of my cousin's who I have not seen in ages!  We had perfect weather, the boys played hard for most of the day and crashed within two minutes of getting in the car, mission accomplished!!!
Checking out Uncle Steve's toy cabinet!  He even opened it up
and let them each pick a special toy to take home with them.
Noah picked a little model Harley Davidson and Silas picked
a 1970 Chevy Nova Hotwheel.   They both had their new
 treasures next to them on their pillows tonight, pretty cute!
Checking out some bikes! Just a tad bit excited!  They both
had to wear their "motorcycle adventure" fleeces and Noah
had another motorcycle t-shirt under his.  He also packed
a special bag of treasures to show Uncle Steve which
included all his cars that he can take apart and put back
together along with a few of his favorite motorcycles!
The coolest tricycle ever!!!
Driving the scooter!
These little garbage scooters bring me back to when I was little and
Uncle Steve would orchestrate a giant garbage drop
where all the little scooters would congregate in our culdesac with the
big garbage truck to dump all their trash into bigger garbage trucks.
It was a very big deal when we were little!
Using the lever to dump all the muddy water out of the back of the scooter!
Driving the other scooter!
I don't know what that face means... :)
Good thing the fences were turned off, leave
it to Silas to go straight for the voltage...
Checking out the really old tractors/yard decor!
Noah started out wanting me on the big tractor with him but then
told me that he was big and he would just do it himself!
Another tractor, seriously, the boys were in heaven!
Driving the little green scooter!
Uncle Steve told Noah he could pick any motorcycle in the shop
and he would start it up for him and this is the one he chose.
He thought it was about his size!
Silas did not like the loud noise and turned into a little cling on...
Thanks for a fun day U. Steve & A. Beck, I am sure we'll be back soon!
