Choo-Choo!

Hunter has really been into choo-choo trains lately, so when our friend April suggested this playdate we knew it would be a fun day!

There is a park not too far from our house that has a short 1 1/3 mile track with a miniature locomotive that you can ride! I hate to call it miniature, because it's not super small, but it is small enough where the conductor sits out in the open and pulls several cars that the passengers ride in. We checked it out on Sunday with Hunter's friends Baker and Owen, and their mommies and daddies, of course. :) The weather wasn't that great but it was a good, cheap form of entertainment for the boys. We'll definitely be back!

Here is a little history about the train if you are interested. It's a cute story -

And some pics from the day:
