Well when you have a little boy that is "choo choo" happy theres no other place to go but Union station. We took Tristan and my nephew Canyon there and wow did they ever enjoy it. There is a small toy train exhibit that is very large and quite impressive. The boys were in awww and just ran around watching the trains go through tunnels, over bridges and around mountains. When we finally were able to get them out of that section it was off to the big trains where they climbed and jumped all over the place. After a few hours they were finally wore out enough that we could leave. Getting home was quite comical as they just went on and on about their adventures. NAPTIME was a blessing. Later thaat night I made sugar cookies that Tristan Loerya Canyon and my niece Oakley were able to use cookie cutters and help cut them out. However a word of advice to all moms out there NEVER make cookies at night and tell kids that they get to frost them in the morning when they wake up. Canyon was so excited about that that he woke me up at 3:00am wanting to do cookies. I was able to get him back in bed but 4:00am and 5:30 am is still not a time for cookie decorating. I finally gave up at 6:00am (on a Sunday morning) and did breakfasst so we could "do" cookies by 7:ooam. Loads of fun though. I did learn my lesson next time I make cookies with kids it will be in the morning so we can decorate in the afternoon.
