Cowgirl runs the tire machine

We often stop by "the shop" on our way home form work and daycare.  "The Shop" is at the main homestead and is a metal shed where my Cowboy and his Uncle do all there wrenching on the machinery.  It is also the place where other local farmers stop by to talk and lets be honest... gossip. On this particular day my husband needed to take an old tire off its rim and replace it with a new one.

He ask Cowgirl KJ if she wanted to do it for him and she of course said "YES, yes, yes!" He showed her what petals to step on and told her when to step on it.

It was adorable...

It was exciting...

Peeking out from behind the new tire

and in the end new farm life skill was learned and a tire was replaced.



 I think if she could get a tire on the machine she would be taking tire off rims for the fun of it.  Luckily she is 4 and not a body builder!




Oh the fun we have on the farm.
