Awesome vid once again. Your oldest young fella will have his own future sorted when he gets older. Helping dad out, providing advice, following Dad in all he does. He is a leader. A very grounded young man. What a credit you are as parents. The life you are giving your kids is an inspiration to all of us that cannot live such a fortunate life.
