Old Threshers 2011

We just got home from our annual trip to Iowa for the Midwest Old Threshers Reunion.  This was Ben's second trip out there, and this year he really got into it.  He rode the train with Papaw and Daddy, the trolley, saw the horses and of course, saw LOTS and LOTS of tractors!  This was definitely the closest you could get to Heaven for a little boy that LOVES tractors and trains :) 
Our great friends, Chad and Callie, also came out for the weekend with their three kiddos...Ben had so much fun playing with his buddies!  Once again, this was a GREAT way to finish up the summer!
