NTP & Birthday

Most of you probably didn't know that we lived in the town where the National Tractor Pull is held.:) Every August for about 3 days our little town about triples in size. We have people come from all over the United States, Canada, and even Europe. I decided that this year we were going to attend. It also was to celebrate Lee's birthday. It was actually really fun! I never knew they had such a thing. It was very cool to watch and hear these massive tractors go down the track. I was impressed with all the rules, and all the work these owners go to. The kids liked how much smoke they would blow out, and how very, very loud they were.
We highly recommend this experience if you ever get the chance to attend.


Lee turned another year older last week. Besides going to the tractor pull, Lee started back to his LAST semester of graduate school. Yay! He wanted some peach custer pie for his birthday so I obliged.



I also suprised him with the game cornhole. (Yet another thing I have only encountered in Ohio.) It consists of throwing bean bags into wooden boards, and trying to get it through the hole. Harder than it looks., but really fun. Happy Birthday Lee!
