IPM 2008

It's been along time since I have been to the International Plowing Match-The last time was when it was held in Elora, and if I remember correctly MacKenzie was only about 1 at the time, so that would be 8 years ago. I really wanted to go this year, since it's pretty close to home again, and I knew Aiden would really enjoy it. On Friday morning Papa, Gramma, Mom, Aiden, Evan and I headed out on a road trip to Teeswater. MacKenzie was going to come, but when we got up in the morning she decided she wanted to go to school....there is something seriously wrong with this picture....definatly not my kid:)!..lol. The ride there was....interesting.....Aiden wouldn't stop talking...Evan wouldn't stop whinning....and I thought OMG, this is going to be a horrible day, but it was a great day. Both kids were Excellent. Of course there is so much to see there. Evan sat in his stroller and took everything in, and Aiden the same....of course every tractor and four wheeler display we had to stop at and Aiden had to get on every tractor, digger, and four wheeler they had. Until almost the end....he ran to get into one tractor and he slipped on the bucket...which was full of water and mud.....he rode around in the stroller for the rest of the way in his underwear while his pants dried....lol. We had a good day, a few good laughs and lots of freebies. The ride home was MUCH more peaceful.....not too long and the kids were sound asleep:). Here a few pics of our day at the IPM.
