Real Live Trains

Ever since receiving a train for Christmas, Brody has fallen in love with them. He will play and play with the train. He even likes to just drive it around without using the tracks. He also has a set of lego blocks that make a train and he plays with that a ton too.Well, about 2 months ago we were headed to Mesa for Trevor's brothers wedding, and as we went through Globe we noticed they had a train at the station. We took a little detour and went to check it out. We got there just in time to watch it pull out. It was easily one of the most exciting parts of our trip for Brody. He was so amazed. He and I stood outside of the car and waved as it drove by. One of the cars had big windows so we could see the people and they waved back to us (pretty sure one even took our picture!).




Maybe someday we'll take him to ride on one. Maybe even the polar express that they do in Williams around Christmas time. He would LOVE it!

Oh he would LOVE the Polar Express! I loved it and we didn't even have kids yet when we went. You should totally plan on doing it one year. What a good mommy you are to stop and let him see the train...that's what life is all about. And the things they will remember the most!

Cute boy!!! I agree with Mary Anne. You are a great mom!

I want to do the Polar Express some time too. Maybe together?!
