Traintastic

Evan had a train filled day today. First off we visited a scale train amusement park. The train ride was fun but once that was done there really was not too much for the kids to do. They were too short for most of the rides there and the petting zoo was only accessible by train. Harry did not like the train tunnels, he started crying because the kids behind us started yelling and screaming every time we went through one.



When we got home there was a lovely package waiting for us. Vicky sent us some Thomas trains that her sons had outgrown. Evan had an absolute blast playing with them all afternoon while Harry was napping. They are a tiny bit old for him but with some help from mommy and daddy he is going to have a lot of fun. He thinks it is the funniest thing when we run two trains on the track and they crash. Thank you a ton Vicky!!! Blog friends are some of the nicest people.

Trains are so fun! Sorry he didn't enjoy the train ride, maybe some other day!

My little cousin LOVES Thomas the Train. We bought Lance a little Lego train that he can play with for now. (Did you know Lego made baby stuff? Pre-Duplo even? Wow!)

My kiddos just had all of their Brio parts spread around the playroom! And they are 10 and almost 13. Obviously, playing with trains is not just for little ones! There are many more years for Harry and Evan to enjoy these trains!

p.s. I awarded you the Rockin' Girl Blogger award today! :)

Thanks for stopping by the cookie post! I actually remembered another tip while I was reading your comment and I've added it to the list. All the best to you and your boys!

Ohhhh, how Haddie would love to come play. Though she would disassemble it and a war would ensue. :-)

If Evan ever comes to visit us I will take him to Travel Town. I think that might be more his speed, no?

I have a package to send you, too, but I just haven't put it together yet. :)

Hey! We have a train like that near our house, but not in an amusement park. Too bad your boy was scared in the tunnels! :(
