Birthday warm up

Since Gunnar's birthday is over Memorial Day weekend, I thought we would celebrate the weekend before by going to Dozer Days. Talk about right up Gunnar's alley - excavators, dump trucks, back hoes. The works! We met a friend for lunch and then made the trek to Camas WA. It was a gorgeous day and G had a blast and was a real trooper through a very long day. The lines were very long to ride the equipment and Gunnar decided there was no way he was letting a stranger take him. Excavator or not! So we dug in the sand pits, kicked some tires and ran a MUCK through the tube/slide complex. The only bad thing about the trip is that there are really no pictures. We borrowed a friends video camera for the trip because we REALLY wanted to document it. It took stills too so I left my point and shoot. Nick took some great video and we had a blast. Then when he went to offload the footage, we discovered none was stored. All that great video. Gone. I uploaded the two pics (us on the bus ride and the event itself) and they are too big. UGH and good night!
