We took a trip up to Michigan for a long weekend back in May. Wes and Cheryl's building trades class was still in session so we stopped by to check out the house their class was building. It was cement day! Brady got to see the cement truck pour the concrete and help spread and smooth out the sidewalk and walkway. We only had one mishap :) Brady turned and walked through some freshly smooth concrete. We got him hosed off and went and bought some new shoes! It was quite funny and unfortunately happened so fast that I did not get any pictures.

Wes gave Brady a hard hat to take home with him

And giving instructions
Brady's turn! Grandpa Wes was a great teacher.
Brady did a great job getting it nice and smooth. This is right before we had our episode of walking through it.
Daddy helps out too
and shows Brady the importance of cleaning the tools when the job is complete
After our big day on the job site we headed out to Sturgis High School to watch the regional track meet. This is where Steph and Brad spent A LOT of time training and competing for the successes they accomplished in the Pole Vault event.
Brady clearly had a big day and did not make it through dinner. He fall asleep in the chair before his food even arrived.
The next day we all headed back out to the track to do some pole vaulting of our own. Brad was able to find Brady a cross bar to use as a pole. Steph and Brad both showed off some of their skills as well.
Brad showed Brady where to hold his hand on the pole
Brady enjoyed playing on the mats and takes a little rest
Back at work learning from his All American dad
