Touch-a-Truck

There were lots of things going on Saturday so we let Carter pick what he wanted to do in the morning.  And the winner.... touch-a-truck. The event brings a lot of trucks together and lets you walk around, climb in them, ask questions about them, etc.  It was a fundraiser for the Cobb County Safety house.  Tech had a home football game so dad went to campus while Mom and the boys checked out the trucks.
There were a ton of trucks.  Carter decided we should start with the garbage truck.  We were some of the first people there so the nice man took a quick family picture.
 Our next stop was the police helicopter.   

 Parker even got a turn in the back seat.
 There were lots of different vehicles and Carter explored them all...

There were also race cars, monster trucks, more construction trucks, a UPS truck, TV truck, school bus and more.  Carter's favorite was the animal control vehicle.  He went back several times to play with the snake grabber.

It was a ton of fun and fortunately there were lots of helpful dads and volunteers who helped mom get Carter in and out of all the trucks.  After we touched everything twice, Carter was ready to head home.
