I'm linking up with Chari for "Sunday Favorites". Chari thank you for hosting each week, it gives us a chance to go back through our archives and relive happier times. Lots of memories are stirred, lots of laughter in the house along with big smiles and more pictures to take to share another time.

Welcome to another Outdoor Wednesday Event. Hosted by our Susan from http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com This is a day we all get to show off our outdoor beauty. So, let's get going..

Many of you know around here we never know what's going to take place. I'm so thankful for the camera to take pictures of all the good times that are occurring. This is "not" a repeat of last weeks Outdoor Wednesday. It wasn't planned, just sort of happened. Boy, am I glad it did.
A few years back this is how it looked when Bailey wanted to go for a ride on his Papa's tractor. I would take him in hand and walk him down and lift him up. Now...
Bill reaches down to take Bailey's hand. And Bailey climbs up on his own. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhdBtOxU8WU9c95OrQQ-nWD3QdrFkokojzeZjpj6Nscw2iYNgbqYSbdl6vrq88gMpPG2vNH9aWlsxuhzCmjDM9pIWqaQOz_TIv-l8hbDXv0HqZh2w6oOPSp8gwRst0DlxPWvv-YDLHVXc/s640/RIDING+WITH+PAPA+ON+LITTLE+JOHN+001.jpg)

Now, Papa it's your turn.. buckle up!!

Looks like everyone is checking gauges. lol
Something sure made Mr. P smile.. lol
Must have been down right funny. :-))
Even Miss Scooter loves going for a ride on Little John.
That's my girl. Usually she's a bit camera shy. I'm so glad she sat still long enough for me to get this picture.
They were so generous to stop long enough for me take the pictures. Look at those smiles. They knew it was going on the blog. lol
Bailey told his PaPa it was time to go.
Hang on folks! We're off!! lol

I hope you enjoyed another day with Mr. P and his tractor. This time with Bailey and Miss Scooter. I'm always so thankful for each good day we have like this one. A man, his grandson and his faithful companion all wrapped up in one package. What more could a man ask for? Days like this are priceless.

Lynne this was such a wonderful day and post! I loved seeing them all so happy, and I know it makes you happy! Thanks for coming by, I had very little time,Docs, tests, grandchildren, and life. Sure miss my friends! This was wonderful!
Lynne this pictures remind me of when our boys were little and Bill would let them drive his backhoe around the land- They always had the biggest smiles while driving!
This is so sweet Lynne! it was like a Kodak moment!! We are so lucky that blogging has us keeping our camera's close at hand!!
xoxo

Wonderful post.
Hi Lynne...What a heartwarming post! I am so glad you had your camera handy to capture the moment! That is one happy crew...including Miss Scooter! (That's a frame-worthy photo of her, by the way!!)How fun to see Bailey with his Papa! Have a wonderful day!...hugs...Debbie
Sweetness. Every day with family is a day to treasure. I am so glad they were able to enjoy each other so...and around the tractor that means so much to your dear husband.
I am so happy for you to have had this ray of sunshine in your week.
Becky K.
Hi Lynne - Thanks for visiting my OW - I should clear up that my iris pics are from the spring - my yard right now looks like the Sahara - dry and ugly brown!!
I love your OW post with all your family - your "men" are so handsome - gotta love it - my girl still hasn't learned that all her silly faces will more than likely end up on my blog!
I loved all your goodies you received from "Texas Jessica" - you really were a winner on that one -
Have a Happy Hump Day -
What a wonderful post. This day will mean so much to all of you. Bless you and your family.
Hi Lynne!
What wonderful photos of a special day with grandad and grandson enjoy the tractor ride together!
My computer service was doen last night (thunderstorms) so I didn't get a chance to do a Outdoor Wednesday thsi week -- come by next week if you can!
Oh Lynne, nothing could be more special that these wonderful pictures.. and the precious time and memories being created.. Hope this finds you well..think of you often. Love, Cindy
What a wonderful post! I am so happy to see my grandson and his "PawPaw" spending time together, it warms my heart to see memories in the making! Take care, friend! Each day is a treasure, isn't it?
Oh Lynne, this is the most special post. I loved it so much. Your dog is so cute as well. And a good time was had by all. Your photos are priceless. I praise the beauty of that day.
Hugs...Jeanne
Lynne, This post is picture perfect! Isn't that what life is all about? yes, I know you truly treasure the good days and luckily you captured them with pictures.
It has been a long time. Thanks so much for your visit. Do come again soon.
Great post! Baily looks like he is having a great time with his Papa. What wonderful memories! Thanks for the nice comments on my aunt's decorating. I will be posting her house soon, be sure and come take a look, it's beautiful!! Kristen
Lynne, I just love this! Bailey sure is a cutie. And the smiles on their faces just say it all. We must have both had boys and their toys on our minds this week! Beautiful post, hugs, Kathy
Lynne, Your pictures are fabulous! I loved each & every one of them too! ☺ diane
A man, his grandson and his faithful companion are Priceless.
Oh Lynne, what a beautiful post. Bailey is growing so big! He's such a cutie, and you know I love Ms. Scooter. What fun the three of them had, and what fun for you to see them having fun together. Wonderful memories were created that day. laurie
These are the sorts of memories that help shape our lives. Grandpa will never be forgotten nor will that day I am sure.
How fun to see the two of them out for a ride...and Miss Scooter to boot! I loved the photo with the big smiles! Our families do play to the blog, don't they? Bailey is so big! I love seeing pics of him since he is the same age as my grandson! What a lovely day for everyone! Happy weekend...hugs...Debbie
Ah yes, men boys and tractors - - - what a combination. And when the man is a grandpa, well even better.
My BIL had a huge John Deere like that for a while and once I drove it around the lot in front of the barn - I found it great fun.
I notice your post has two different sizes of fonts. For more than a year after I began playing Sunday Favorites my reposts did this all the time - - - I HATED it and it drove me nuts. Then one day I noticed that if I clicked on the html tab at the top of the posting box, and if I scanned down through all the "gibberish" I could find places that said things like "font size 130%. Now I scan down through the html of ALL my reposts and make sure all those font sizes are the same - - - 130% makes really large font so I always set all mine to 100%.
You can do this even now by going to your dashboard, finding this post on the top of the list, clicking edit and proceeding from there.
Good luck!
Oh Lynne, I am so glad you have these priceless photos, to share with us but mainly to keep your sweet memories alive! I hope this is a good day for you and Mr. P. XOXO, Pinky PS, your grandson is handsome, and I bet REALLY handsome by now:):)
HI Girlfriend...
Ahhh...what sweet and precious memories you caught on film (or should I say computer? hehe!) Girlfriend, I loved looking through your photos of Bill and Bailey! I'm sure that Bailey had the time of his life...riding in Grandpa's tractor! What little boy wouldn't love doing that? About four years ago, Grandpa Russ took a few of the grandkids for a ride on his tractor and I have photos of that as well! You should have seen the smiles on those kiddos! We have sold the tractor since then as well. Hmmm...there have been a few times since then that we wished we still had it.
Well dear friend, thank you so much for joining in with Sunday Favorites this week! I'm so sorry that I am just now getting by...it's just been busy here! I hope that my note is finding you all doing well!
Love you sweet friend!
