Cateplillar Musem & Penny turns 1 in Bloomington

We had a fantastic visit in Bloomington this month!!
First stop was the new caterpillar museum in Peoria.  As many of you know Michael is huge fan of construction equipment. so what better way to made the dream a reality!

We started the tour off by entering into into a 797 F mining truck. Its like the BIGGEST truck in the world.... we watch a brief movie on Caterpillar and how it evolved. The seat rumbled and vibrated like we were really in the truck! Michael and Pen loved it!.

Next stop was the museum where you could get into the trucks and drive them. They also had video simulators so you could see what ti was like to use the various equipment. It was pretty sweet.

We then came back to Uncle Steve and Aunt DeEttes house for Pen's birthday celebration. Pizza, wine and pop were had by the gang. After cake we had a fire and roasted marshmallows it couldn't have been a more perfect weekend with Tony's side of the family. Everyone one so generous with their gifts to Penny, we are so grateful for everyone's generosity!
