TRAIN!!! CHOO! CHOO!

Evelyn has recently found a love for trains. David put up a little electric train set in the spare room. Then Evelyn's cousin mason gave her this really awesome Thomas the Train set with tons of tracks and all the magical transportation devices you can imagine. She also got to put money on the train track and find it after it had been squished by the train. Now every time she hears or sees a train she yells "TRAIN!!! CHOO CHOO!" So we decide to take her on the train to Hanford, a 30 minute trip. Its so worth the mere $21 round trip.



Leonard was prett chill the whole time.



This Evelyn's excited face.



We went to Supreme Dairy and we had obviously forgotten how big the scoops are there because we totally over ordered. But, Evelyn didn't mind one bit.



After ice cream we hung out at the city park for a minute then checked out some of the local shops. By the time we got back to the train we were all pretty pooped.



Evelyn playing with the ticket machine. Right before this she had fallen and hit her head pretty hard, but it didn't phase her for long.



Back home. It was a great little family adventure and it was a first for both Leonard and Evelyn but I am sure it won't be the last.

What a fun trip! I remember when I was little my grandma took my brother and I on a train ride to Sacramento. It was so fun. I will have to do that when Keira gets a little bigger.
