When Chris was young he spent many MANY days at his grandparents. He was very close to his Grandpa, and spent many a day driving a old Ford 861...the "little ford".

| Chris at age 12 with his Grandpa Christensen on the "big ford". This picture was taken Sept 1986...Grandpa died Nov 1986 from cancer. Hearts were broken and sad, but none as great as Chris's. His best friend and mentor was now gone. |
Today all the Christensen family came over for the family X-mas dinner. Chris's birthday is on X-mas day. Grandma gave Chris a very special present of a ford tractor.... (which Mason quickly claimed as "his!")
It is not the exact same as the "little ford", but it is like the tractor that Chris bought from Grandpa deBoer, which is identical to the "little ford".
