Creighton rides too....

Creighton would much rather ride this old mower than the horse. This is an old mower that has absolutely no use except for Creighton to ride. It doesn't even have a deck and belongs in the junkyard, but Creighton LOVES to drive it. Saturday he went through THREE tanks of gas! He really thinks he is mowing and pretends he is working very hard. So after we mowed yesterday morning, he had to get out his mower and 'mow'. As many laps as he made around the yard we decided to hook up the lawn sweeper to pick up the grass clippings. It worked out well. He drove the mower, picked up the clippings, dumped them in the horses pen and he got paid a dollar at the end of the day. Win/win. He was ecstatic about his dollar, we were glad to get the grass picked up and the horse was happy to get a little extra to eat. I am sure we are in violation of some child labor law, but to Creighton it was just all part of a day's work :)
