Train Museum

Another membership we've certainly gotten our money's worth with!

Took the kids out to the train museum in Golden, Colorado last week. About 45 minutes away....an easy drive.....and what a treat when we arrive.

They're hosting Thomas the Train next month and if Jack knew what was in store for him, he'd be counting down the days.

We spent more time inside during this trip than the previous ones. Downstairs houses all sorts of railroad memorabilia and also a huge model train.



Outside to tour the trains.



Lainey and I took a break on the blanket while the boys ran around.

Jack was on one engine, only to hear an actual train go by. "Where d go?!"



Big girl standing up.

Toured the garage where they restore engines.



The boys.



One engine allows you to sit in the driver's seat and it simulates an actual train ride.

Little One


Here is Lainey at the zoo a few days ago. She is so sweet and continues to amaze us at how little she is! Almost 11 months old and just 19 pounds. So very tiny compared to our big boys, both around 27 pounds by age one.

Ouch

107 degrees?!

I always think that anything over 90 is hot....no matter where you are....but this sounds extreme!

Pure Happiness


One of my favorites I removed from its larger file posted earlier....Jack on the swing at Caroline's house. I love the age he's at. His happiness is so simple and pure...and when its like this....such a joy to witness.

Rotten


Jack and Lainey outside last night. Jack looks all too pleased about enjoying his juice box with little sister fussing next to him wanting a drink.
