odies dad Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 All three of my boys qualified for state in the pedal tractor competition. We went to the Minnesota state pull in Huchinson today. Connor (4) didn't do too well. He went about 8 feet and turned to look behind him. That was the end of that. Dawson (7) was in the top 20 of around 50 boys in his age group. Liam (8 ) took 2nd with a pull of 23 feet 9 inches. First place was only about a foot farther. This is one of the few places I have been with my kids that they didn't look out of place for their size. There were some big farm kids out there. I'm pretty proud of all of them for qualifying for state say nothing about winning. Liam will be competing in the national pull in Mitchell SD the end of September.

odies dad Posted September 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 It was kinda chilly in there, so Connor wanted to snuggle. When the kids were babies I used to cuddle them up inside my bathrobe when it was cool. Some things never grow old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 I've never heard of this; interesting! I'll bet boys just love this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odies dad Posted September 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 The kids and the wife went to Nationals today in Mitchell SD. (I had a prior commitment, but was there in spirit.) Liam took second place again in nationals! He got a big trophy and the rights to go on to the international pull. I think that is scheduled for next summer in Iowa. He pulled over 33 feet. He smoked the kid that took first place from him at state. First place in this pull was a full pull. I am really proud of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FC Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 I'll bet your kids would like to see the videos on our chicks hatching, and a day later. If you go to YouTube and look at majajh for author, or chicks hatching for subject, they will find about six videos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swamprat Posted September 26, 2010 Report Share Posted September 26, 2010 Grandson's and I used to pull garden tractors. We had a great time. When your boys out grow the pedal one you might want to think about garden tractor pulling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
