Trains, Trains and more Trains!

On the diesel train
Connor sportin' Daddy's hat
Connor going walking crazy. He is so independent now that he is walking, he won't allow you to hold his hand.

Connor petting a bulldog named Lulu. He was fascinated by her. She had medical issues and couldn't walk so she rode in the wagon.
The old-fashioned fire engine. Beautiful!


The guys who owns this car must love trains even more than Aedyn, if that's possible.

A bus turned into a train complete with whistle and bell.

Aedn could sit there and watch the trains for hours.

Aedyn engineering one of the displays that not only had a train but, a helicopter, and a car. Really great hands on for kids!

As you may well know Aedyn loves, no, is obsessed, with trains! He lives and breathes trains. So to further fuel the fire we decided to attend a train festival called Railroad Days in downtown Brea,Ca. They had tons of model train displays all the way from Z to O to standard size. Completely awesome. I think Connor has caught the bug too, he loved looking at the choo choos.There was a little kid size train to ride on, and old-fashioned fire engine with a dalmation doggie to boot. Oh, and we rode a trolley bus around the corner to see and get on a real diesel engine! We bought some cute train material to turn into a blanket and maybe pillows or a valance for Aedyn's room. We are redoing it in, what else, TRAINS! It was quite a beautiful and entertaining day, ending with some good music and ice cream.
