Finally! A Day With Trains!

I get the paper. I get 2 of them, in fact. Every week. Do I read them? Rarely...usually I just flip through them. Good thing I have people looking out for me! My mother-in-law called me the other day to tell me that this town was having Train Day for Father's Day weekend. I figured I owed Braden a good day with trains from our botched Day With Thomas last month. So I woke up from a short 3.5 hour nap after my 12 hour night shift and we drove the 1 hour south to go and see these trains.

They had this awesome little train for the kids to ride on and Braden was ecstatic...to say the least!

And a bouncy house!

There was also a big train car there and he just ran right up to it and helped himself!

Then we got to go on our train ride.

Then this happened...and we got out of there right before the rain started! HA! Take that, Weather!

It was so worth the 2 hour round trip, Braden had such a wonderful time and was telling me "I ride on little train! I go on big train! Jump in house!" And here's our Father's Day pictures from Sunday....plus the outtakes of trying to get Braden to keep his darn hands out of his mouth!!

Hope you had a wonderful Father's Day weekend! I, for one, appreciate my Heavenly Father more than ever this year!
