An Afternoon at the Train Park

This morning Payton and I were relaxing and not in any hurry to get ready for the day.  (We're allowed to be that way every once in a while right?)  I got a text from Paige around 9:00 saying they were going to go to a train park and they wanted Payton and I to join them. Logan is really into trains lately, and so they wanted to take him before it got too hot.

When we got to the park the kids were SO excited!  Payton didn't realize we were going anywhere with the Farmer's until we got out of the car and she saw them.  She screamed with excitement when she saw them it was adorable.  

We had to buy some tickets for us (the adults), then we went on the carousel.  Payton didn't know what to think about it and was a pretty serious baby on it.  But she seemed happy.

 Getting ready to ride the carousel

 Love this girl!

After we rode the carousel we decided to go ride a train.  It was a cute little train ride and Payton loved waving to all of the people we passed.  While we were waiting Payton's favorite thing was to either pick flowers, or hang on the fence.


 She actually wore this hat most of the time (I'm SO impressed, and so happy since it was SUPER hot and sunny out and it was only 10:00 in the morning!)

 She loved climbing the fence and waving to people

 Logan joined her :)

 Tried to get a picture of us sitting on the train.  

 Payton and Logan were climbing all over the place while we were waiting for people to get on the train.

Enjoying the ride

After our train ride Payton was SO excited to take of running towards the park.  Which is really funny because she was squealing and yelling the whole time towards the park and she came to a screeching halt when she saw sand.  She has developed this phobia of sand, or an OCD of being clean and not wanting sand on her.  So I picked her up and carried her to the park.  Paige was wondering if Payton would let me put her down at all and any time I tried to put her down Payton would cling to me and lift her legs really high so they wouldn't touch the sand.  

She had a lot of fun running around though and she would yell for Paige.  (I love how she says Paige's name).  I have a video of it, I'm going to tory and load it.  

This cute wagon was next to the park, the kids loved playing in it

I love how she says Paige ;)

The last thing we did was go look at the train exhibit.  They seriously had trains EVERYWHERE!  It was so much fun.  The kids loved looking at the trains.  

 Some of the trains (they had them running overhead as well)

 Payton would literally plater her whole face on the glass as she watched the trains





Love this girl so much!

We had a blast at the park with the Farmer's!  Afterwards we had a delicious lunch at Sweet Tomatoes (kids ate free!) and then came home.  It was the perfect start to our Saturday.
