More Trip Photos (Reading)

This is the second installment of our trip to PA (no cool craft stuff or funny stories mostly just photos.)

When we finally got to the hotel we where all a bit ready to have a break... I had mine with this wine.... yumm yumm.

Thank goodness Nana had stickers and crayons!

Imagine that they have McDonald's in PA:)

Nana and Ada Liz.

It is wonderful to have family!

Here you can see our Ada Liz when she is ready for a nap.... she kinda gets silly (boy is that nice!).

Can you see him?

How knew that an ottoman could be so much fun?

I HAD to go shopping (it is my favorite outlet.)

You can make a toy out of almost anything.

A REALLY good reason to visit and a really good reason I do not live there (I would be eating these chips alllllll day long... I might even have to hide them so no one would know I was always eating them;)

Fun at the park with friends.

She is teaching Elijah all kinds of cool things (she also showed him how to skip rocks.)

Ada Liz in her dress and in the mud (she was M A D when we left this spot to eat lunch)

Fun noise makers that I got for the kids (Mark even was ok with them... sorta).

Thank you Nana for a great visit.

First part of our train trip

We gad a great time on our train trip. I was hoping that I would be able to write a couple of really long blogs with lots of details, but I am just to far behind to do that so.... you get a brief story and lots of photos (this might take just as long, but it is less thinking on my part (heehee)

Elijah was just getting way to antsy by the time the bus ride was over that I thought that Mark might just blow steam out of his head (I know this look as I have had it MANY times with Elijah;) So I took Elijah for a walk and got to walk the whole train. It was fun to be doing stuff with Elijah and not fighting with him (He and I had a REALLY ruff patch right before the trip).

We also found this cool hand dryer (man was it fast cold air)

Just a shot of the 2 of us on our "anti-antsy" walk

Here we are in our room on the train... finally. The room was wonderful and big(ish) for a train.

Dinner is included and boy was it good (well maybe that was the wine talking:)




We had to change trains at (Oh my Goodness ) 5am and here we are at that hour, trying to look happy.




We spent a lot of time watching a movies.




Piggy wanted to see out the window also... too cute.



Lots of card games.



Lots of craft projects (glue sticks rock! thank you Stephanie for the idea)



Nothing feels as good as sleeping on Dad's shoulder.



Here we are in PA!!! All happy and mostly well rested. More tomorrow (I know you are not sure how you can wait that long, but you will have to:)
