it's a jeep thing

My husband could not wait to get our grandson his first Jeep, so last Saturday he did!
Once Alton learned he could reach the pedal, it was off to the races.
  Going forward was a bit easier than learning how to put in into reverse.
The tree in our backyard got in the way a time or two.
My daughter's chocolate lab, Jake, loved chasing them both around the yard.
I think Alton loved working the knobs more than driving.
 How do you like those seat belts?
It was a super great day!
 Alton....Jeep owner before 2!

JUST NEEDS A MUSTACHE!!!!!!!!! How adorable is that! I know you enjoyed every minute of that day & have you pulled Grandpop out of the clouds yet?

I have had company for a week & we had sooooooooooooo much fun but, I am so far behind. In blog posting/reading, keeping up with my buddies, mail, invoicing for work, laundry, groceries... but, I'll do double duty now. We shopped, played & ate. Now I'm broke, behind & fatter..... Can't wait to see you next weekend. Can you believe it's almost here? HUGS!

Diane, your blog redesign is fantastic...I love the 2-column format with the LARGER pictures.... so much better to see and appreciate the full glory of your beautiful pictures!
Alton is adorable. My goodness he's getting big. I love that one photo, the 4th I think, where you see that great action shot of your dog bolting forward! These sure brought smiles over here!

Oh, somebody has the Jeep-bug! Well, I guess it is never too early to learn about safe driving...
Sweet photos - I am sure you all had a great time!

How adorable Diane! My husband bought our son {age 3} a Ford truck for Christmas last year & he LOVES it. He will put his little tools in the back and say "bye... I'm off to work." but the funniest was the day that he went to the drive thru window by his play house & placed an order...{maybe that is a sign that we eat take out a little too much}

Alton is adorable! I just love kids when they are at the age where everything is still exciting, and everything they do is like a new adventure.

I am in love with the expression on Alton's face in the first shot .. and Jake's looking like he's having a ball

Oh Diane, that brings back some very pleasant memories of my own grandson. We got him a Jeep when he was about 2 as well. He loved that thing so much, almost glued to it constantly and played with it until he was 5-6 years old. It was so much fun watching him. Your grandson is adorable.

Hi Diane, I think my grandson is getting a Jeep like his dad's for Christmas! He is 2 1/2 so I guess he isn't too young to drive!!! LOL I am so glad to see they have seatbelts! Too cute! Hugs, Stephani
