Out of all of the John Deere toy tractors he has, the combine is his favorite. He actually has four of them in different sizes.
Imagine his delight when he had the chance to ride in a real John Deere combine with a friend of ours.
Let's just say ... this was most definitely a little boy's dream come true!
We met Mr. & Mrs. Engel at the corn field near their house.
You should have seen the look on Griffin's face when he saw the combine.
He climbed right in with Mr. Engel ... ready to go cut some corn. I learned they call this "shelling" corn.
And there they go ... shelling corn!
I thought he would get a short ride ... but Mr. Engel took him for a long ride. They filled up the entire bin with corn.
Here they come to park near the semi-truck so they could do the off load.
They manuevered the off load auger over for the corn to fall into the trailer.
And there they go ... off loading the corn.
And here they are ... Mr. Engel and our country boy Griffin.
Mr. and Mrs. Engel certainly made our little boy's dream come true.
that is so awesome for griffin, you can see the excitement in his face!!! i bet he will be asking to go back again!!!

So cool for G! This brings back memories of living in Nebraska, harvesting wheat. We did it in much the same way as Mr.Engel and Griffin did. I got to drive the combine once...it was really fun. Most of the time I was the one in the truck. So glad Griffin got to realize one of his dreams!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome is that???? Uncle Jerome is going to be soooo jealous when he finds out what Griffin did, lol. It's so wonderful that you have friends who can make wishes and dreams come true.
ReplyDeleteWow, every little boys dream! The pictures really tell the story! I bet G was thrilled!
