Elmo has become Annika's sudo baby these days. He does everything she does like eat...

Annika and I had a "date" to Eugser's Farm and McDonald's during Labor Day weekend. Here she is thoroughly enjoying dipping her apples and fries in both caramel and ketchup...at the same time.
My heart melts when I look in those eyes.
Nothing rides like a Deere!
