'Skavator at the birthday party

[Okanagan]

Last evening at supper a bunch of our family got together for a birthday party.  Good food and fun on a son's big patio, and as things started to slow down, a two year old great grandson of mine crawled up on his grampa's lap and said "Skavator."

I didn't have a clue what he was saying but with several repetitions my son figured out that the toddler was saying "Excavator." My son's excavator machine was parked within view and the little boy wanted to fire it up and drive it again, on his grampa's lap, as he has done before.    Within another minute or so the two of them had the machine going and were out there working the bucket and grading the gravel driveway.

How many little boys want to drive an earth moving machine--- and actually get to- immediately! 

Wish we had taken some pics of that as well as the birthday cake.

Good times. Your golden years are truly golden.

He knew what lap to crawl up on for results
