Heart of Virginia

Tommy and I spent the first weekend in May at the Heart of Virginia Festival with Gramma and Uncle Jeremy. Unfortunately, Will had to work that weekend so he had to miss out on all the fun. Tommy had a great time climbing on the firetruck, sitting in the airplane, eating a giant hotdog and some funnel cake, dancing, climbing, sliding, and eating a tasty DQ vanilla cone!

And if you can believe it, the fun didn't stop there as we headed back to Gramma's house for plenty of tractor rides with Uncle Jer and fun in the sandbox with Gramma! In the picture with he and Uncle Jer actually driving the tractor, Tommy is steering all by himself. He really seems to have a good feel for driving in general and turning in particular at the ripe old age of almost three. I'm not sure if I should be happy about that or just really nervous, but regardless, it was fun to watch him manuver the mower up into the circular drive and around the cars (with Jer's occasional quick hand to help)! Maybe there's a Nascar driver in our future?! :)

At the end of the day, Tommy and JerJer were worn out! What a fun weekend!
