Grandpa Lee's Ford

The exact day that we welcomed the little Tolie Boy into our world 4 years ago, Grandpa Lee, Dave's Dad, also welcomed a new addition to his family: a red Ford F150. Tol has had a love affair with this truck ever since. They had a special bond from the beginning.
With that said, Tol had a "drive in" at pre-school where he had to bring a car made from a box. Of course, Tol wouldn't settle for anything less than "grandpa Lee's Ford." Needless to say, Dave and I were up all night putting this thing together. Dave had a ton of studying to do, but put it on the back-burner for Tol. That's the kind of papa Dave is. Thanks Babe! Plus, if you think that Dave didn't like doing this project, you're kidding yourself.



This is Tol and all his pre-school buddies at the "Drive- In." It looks like we weren't the only ones up all night.

Those are the coolest cars ever! I hope Jenna never has to make one - I totally have no right brain whatsoever and am completely incapable of being creative. What good parents you are!

Good for Dave! You want to know what Easton took? Look at the back right of your picture, the white one with the circles on the front, that's right that is Racing Rigg's and that also happened to be Easton's car at school the next day-why because I am lazy! Also, Spencer was leaving to Lake Powell and didn't have time to make one. Once again I win the mom of the year award!

are you kidding? That truck is amazing! What a cute idea. Dave who needs medical school, you need to go into car and truck design for pre-schoolers! Nice Work!

Dave is amazing! That is the coolest truck. No wonder Tol wants to keep it in his room.
