Trains & Thanksgiving

Around Thanksgiving we ventured to the Jackson Street Roundhouse in St. Paul to take in the sights and sounds. Even included a short train ride. These boys definitely enjoyed themselves.
Also involved checking out big & little trains.


It seems with every trip to the Cities we never fail to get Micah to "Bandana Squares". It's actually Bandana Square and it houses the Twin Cities Model Railroad. M LOVES it!
(I don't think Grandpa minds too much either!)

The entrance to Jackson Street Roundhouse.
I'm pretty sure it met with the approval of the young lad!

He is our train boy!

Viking Fever

For those of you that don't know, Steve is a die-hard Vikings Fan. Yes...each year he starts the year by saying..."We're going to the Superbowl!" This year was no exception.

Early in the season we would get all geared up to watch the games.
Micah was taught all the important phrases...like "Go Vikings" "Touchdown"...
As the season wore on....
We tried to keep smiling.
It was fun while it lasted.
Unfortunately the season for the Vikings didn't end in a trip to the Superbowl. In fact, it was probably the weirdest season....and the icing on the cake was when the Dome ripped and deflated because of snow. It really was a fitting end to a sad season.
Don't worry folks, my husband will be back next fall in all his purple & gold glory, ready to cheer his team on to the Superbowl.
In the meantime......praise the Lord for baseball.
And so we move on...
Go Twins!!
