Trucks and Buckets-A Boy and his Toys!

This yellow Tonka truck has been around our house for over 8 years now. The boys' Grandpop gave it to Jake when he was born-literally! Now it is Brett's turn at the "built tough" truck and he had a blast with it yesterday. Up and down the backyard and around again. His other favorite toys at the moment are buckets. I think he gets this from his love affair with the horses at Grandad's house. Buckets (or bucks as he calls them) was one of his first words! These two little ones made their backyard debut yesterday as well and he had a blast finding treasures around the yard to fill them up with. Pinecones, rocks, dog toys, and dirt all had their place in his buckets. He even put the buckets in the truck and took them for a ride. He did have a little competition from the dog who was just as eager to take things out of the buckets as Brett was to put them in the buckets. Just a few disputes among the two of them! Brett takes it in stride and tells Rocky "no, No, NO!" So glad to see the nice weather finally arriving so we can have more backyard adventures!
