Touch a Truck

I joined a group through meetup.com to meet some moms and tots in our new town. I'm so glad that I did! I tend to have a little social anxiety and get nervous meeting new people. Never feel like I think of anything clever to say and agonize over what the kids and I should wear. I love to search the internet for fun places to explore, find delicious new recipes to try, cute crafts to do, etc. However, I often feel like I waste time looking for things to do that we could actually be out doing things. So this mother's group is great because there are currently 39 moms that all host events throughout the year and I love to see all their different ideas. I'm looking forward to a fun (and busy summer - more on that later)!!!

Touch a truck was a HUGE hit! Best of all it was a FREE event :)

Big yellow truck with a snow plow

Sitting in the truck and playing with the radio = PRICELESS :)

A big red fire truck

Alan would NOT let the firefighter put him in the truck.

I would totally buy ice cream from this cute boy!

Hopefully his first and LAST time sitting in a police car.

Prize for the coolest vehicle goes to.... Oscar Mayer Wiener mobile!!!

Best part of going to an event with other moms - actually getting to be IN a picture with your child!

We couldn't have asked for a better day - the weather was absolutely gorgeous!
