Totally Trucks! (Not just for boys!)

Last Friday, we took Ella to a Reston event called "Totally Trucks" that allowed children to climb, touch, and ride about two dozen different types of trucks ranging from mail trucks to fire engines. In prepping Ella for her morning adventure, Erika explained all the different machines she would see and how many of them would be similar to the trucks she reads about in her "Things That Go!" book (which she totally loves). Her response with a simultaneous hand clap: "Yeah! Trucks! Yeah! Trucks!" And Tim thinks she's too girlified! Whatever!



"Driving" an ambulance....she just found the horn and was feeling a little shy about the noise she made!


So excited to be in the fire truck!

She's ready to put out some fires - Ella to the rescue!

Watching some live action - the "diggers" and "loaders" and dump trucks were a major hit

Ella, do you have a license to drive that?

Ok, she can reach the hand bars, but her feet don't quite reach the pedals.....

All the children received free construction hats; Ella proudly wore hers!
