Look who's in the driver's seat

Is this a preview of what the kids are going to want to do at the State Fair (climb on every piece of equipment possible), or perhaps a peek at what they'll want to be when they grow up.

Daddy gets to ride in some of the coolest vehicles. And between a rally at City Hall and a family picnic, the kids had a ball checking out the rigs. Of course, for AJ, the highlight was turning on the lights and siren. For Sydney, I think the joy came simply from getting to sit in the front seat.

"Daddy, you army so-der?"

"Yes," Jeff patiently responds each time, "I'm an army solder."

"I army so-der too!"
