BIGFOOT

It is no exaggeration to say that I haven't see Tol this excited about anything in, well... ever. There was a HUGE monster truck on display at the 'Firestone' by our house for 2 days. Tol spotted it while driving by on Saturday, so being the great Dad Dave is, he stopped. Tol got to meet the driver and even got an autographed picture of 'Bigfoot' (that he's been carrying around ever since). Dave took him back that night so Tol could see it get 'put away' for the night. Tolman was amazed at how loud it was. The driver even gave them a mini show and drove it across the parking lot a few times.
After church today, Tol wanted to see if 'Bigfoot' was still there. Sure enough- it was. So we got out, got some pictures and the driver gave Tol a toy 'Bigfoot.' Good thing he has 2 hands, one for the autographed picture (the "map"), and one for 'Bigfoot.'
O- and the best part is Tol immitating the truck starting (not annoying at all) and then him saying, "Nothing can stop BIGFOOT!"

He is so funny! I think it's amazing that he is so into cars and how much he already knows about them! That's so cool that the driver was so nice about it all! Bigfoot really is huge. :)

You'll have to take him to the Monster Truck rally next time it comes! My brother took Eli last year and Eli LOVED it.
