Trains, trains, and more trains!

On the Sunday after Christmas (12/28/08) grumpa took the three of us to a model train exhibit at the Washington State History Museum. They had several very large trains set up and they had conducter hats and coloring books and buttons for the kids.


ANDREW LOVED IT!! He is our little engineer :)

This train was made by playmobil (that makes toys). They had a scavenger hunt and we went around trying to find the different animals and people hidden throughout it. Mommy helped.

They also had a whole bunch of LEGO Thomas trains and tracks for the kids to play with. Andrew was a little shy of the other kids at first.

Watching the trains go round and round.

Andrew really liked these bridges and tunnels, he kept going back to it.

Andrew also loved the circus train and didn't want to leave that one. There was a great big Thomas train and Annie and Clarabel so he really liked that.

It had a lot of little circus games and this tent with animals as scenery.

Proof that mommy was there, not just taking the pictures. But he rides around on daddy's shoulders, not mine. And he gets heavy.

They had other exhibits but Andrew wasn't as interested in those, except this old west exhibit with a wagon and a train.

Giddy up, horsey!

They had these stools with phones in front of them as part of an exhibit and he pretended to call 'Muh' and tell her all about the trains (since she didn't come with)

Such a tired little boy. He started laying his head down on daddy's head.
