Do you live in the Capital District? Do you have a toddler? Then you're crazy if you don't go to Big Truck Day - in theory.
Big Truck Day is a parking lot full of every conceivable big truck. Buses, construction vehicles, a police car (with a police dog!), etc. It's fantastic. There's a cupcake bus (with cupcakes - thank you, http://bettiescakes.com/), ice cream, food for sale. There are people making balloon animals and a bouncy house. Sounds perfect, right?
Almost. Because it's always the most humid day in the world. We've been twice and as much as the kids love it, I feel like I'm going to die about 30 minutes into the 2 hours that we're there. If the kids had wanted to stay on the CDTA bus the entire time, I would've stayed there. Why, you ask? Because the lovely bus driver left it on with the A/C going. Bless that man.
I would also like to point out to the crappy school bus driver that she needs a better attitude. Toddlers love your bus - let them sit in the driver's seat. Last year's guy was letting them jump out the back emergency door. It was fantastic.
In the end, it's always a fun day for the kids. And that's what counts, right? Besides, I got a red velvet cupcake - yum!
Anyway, here are a couple pictures of my monkeys being cute - thank you to Christina for getting the cutest pictures of them:
Aww Emmett's taking after his Uncle Joe
