A Few Recent Outings

Over the weekend we finally rode the train in Boone. We have had tickets for it since Abram's birthday (which was all about trains if you remember).My friend Molly was visiting us for the weekend so she came along, too. It was fun to have her along - especially since she helped keep me from having a complete panic attack going over the high bridge suspended in the air - or so it seemed from my perspective. I have not experienced that much anxiety ever!
Getting ready to leave.
The little man started off having a good time. The popcorn helped.
This was the much lower bridge. I was okay with this one.
A rare moment of Abram sitting still. The train ride was an hour and 40 minutes. Due to a shorter than normal nap that day, let's just say the ride was about an hour and 30 minutes too long! But, at least now he can say he rode a train. Maybe his dad will take him again sometime when he can enjoy it more. I will definitely stay home that day!
On Tuesday Kate and I took the kids to Ledges State Park.


These two little guys are just about inseparable whenever they are anywhere outside together.

Part way through the long hike back up the winding hill.
We drove into Boone and sat on the curb to watch some of the RAGBRAI riders ride into town.
Pouring water on each other was definitely more fun for them than watching people on bikes!
