A couple of weeks ago we went to Mesa to help celebrate my Uncle Bob's 80th birthday. I was great to see so many family members there to show their love to Uncle Bob. Marty asked him if he had any words of advice for the boys. He said,"Drink lots of Pepsi." Uncle Bob could always be found with a Pepsi in hand, no matter what time of day it was.
He used to tease all of his nieces, he always said we were "good looking boys". He always got a good giggle and squirm out of us.
We all love Uncle Bob, hope he has many more happy years.
When we were on our way home, Marty realized we were close to Mesa's Historical Museum were he restored an old tractor for his Eagle Project. He wanted to stop to see if it was still there and it was. There were two other tractors with it so we let the boys climb on them for a while, they both love tractors so it made their day.
I was taking to long taking pictures, Dylan had more important things to do beside stand there and wait.
What is it about steering wheels and boys?

how neat that the tractor was still there. I liked what you wrote about your uncle, he sounds fun.
I can't believe your boys are that old now! They are so great!! Tractors will always be the love of a little boys life! Will is in love with garbage truck right now. It is hilarious. You guys look good! Don't freeze up there!
That is so cool that they got to go see the Tractoe their Dad worked on! Sweet!
I love the Pepsi comment - your uncle sounds awesome!
Or Tractor - LOL, sorry!
Wow, that paint really has done well over the years!!
Cute pictures!!
I remember that tractor. I bet when Marty was working on it, it never occurred to him he'd be back to take pictures of his sons "driving" it. :) Crazy how fast life moves.
Totally up for getting together for a baseball game! Texas or AZ? When is baseball season anyway? :)
I have to tell you--BOTH of my kids love Marty's little tractor out in your yard. In fact, Kassidy wants one just like it for her birthday and Isaak has to say bye-bye to it all the time.
There's just something about kids and tractors!
