Built for Boyhood
Tonka is a very popular name in our household. When A was about 8months old, we bought him his first set of these little trucks. They are perfect for hand-holding, so he gravitated to them quickly. It got to the point when all other toys were neglected and he had to have his little trucks by him. I think he's got about 30+ now, including the Speed-n-go Funway to "race" them on. These are a sampling of the different sets. As I was lining them up to take a pic, he had a fit. What you don't see is that he's in the background, playing with about 15 already. He just can't stand not having one if he even catches a glimpse of it.
Macro 100mm, ISO400, Ap 5.6, 1/40. This little van is my personal favorite. 
24-70L, ISO400, Ap 8.0, 1/60.
24-70L, ISO400, Ap 3.2, 1/200.

My little guys has these also. To be honest, I think it's me that loves them more! They are so cute & I giggle whenever I find them hidden throughout the house!
Those are the cutest trucks ever!!! We have a couple of the cars but that van...ADORABLE!!! The colors are so fantastic!!
And hey, feel feel to decorate my bathroom anytime! :) It's currently undecorated and could use a little inspiration! I might do the honey wash on all of them...would suit the bathroom colors nicely. I'm gonna attempt some more for the series tomorrow :)

I've never seen those- we're more into the girly stuff around here, but I gotta tell ya, those are just simply adorable!! Love that last one- great dof!!

Yes, it's been SO cold here lately! If you drive thru here during the day, (assuming you'll be heading west, you'll see the Colorado National Monument on your left (south). It's like a miniature version of the Grand Canyon. I haven't been up there since it's snowed, but it's a beautiful drive. It takes about 45 min. to an hour to drive through it. Tons of great scenery!
