An excavator in our backyard!

Yesterday an excavator came to visit for 2.5 hours, making our morning anything but routine!! Watching Zach's awe as this heavy piece of machinery was unloaded and then operated a few feet away from us, was a privilege. It was a chilly morning but I don't believe Zach felt the cold at all. The man operating the excavator was wonderful with both of us and didn't mind us watching and even offered Zach the opportunity to climb on and sit in the driver's seat. Zach was much too intimated to accept this offer for the first 2 hours but as the work was finishing he climbed up and 'drove'!! Today is sure to be much less exciting for our two-year-old boy!
