All Aboard!

This week for our Resident Spouse playgroup we drove 1/2 an hour to the neighboring town of Moberly for a miniature train ride. The train runs along a real track, and was a hit with the kids. It was the PERFECT day to be outside, and I enjoyed the relaxing ride through the park.


The kids got to take turns sitting in the Engine and pushing the "whistle." Eli felt like a real Engineer!

Afterwards we had a picnic lunch, and played on the "Candyland" playground. The park was right on the banks of a large lake, surrounded by woods... very scenic! I was sure grateful for the fence though, because my boys were dieing to get near the water and throw stuff.



It was a good day!

What an awesome park! I would drive a half hour for that kind of fun! :) The train is a little boys dream and those are some sweet slides!
