Day 1 ~ Strasburg Rail Road

Day 1 dawned sunny & warm. We decided to let the kids take a swim after breakfast. They made up lots of games while in the pool. While they swam Dave & I made phone calls & searched on the Internet for someone who could AND would fix our ailing van. After a quick change it was time for lunch & then off to the Strasburg Rail Road.

E-Boy

It's hard to believe that this time last year he would barely put his big toe in the water.

The Cousins

Big Boy, Petunia & Nemo

My Hero!

I wasn't feeling 100% & Bugs was getting restless waiting for lunch. Auntie Maralee saved the day by picking him up & centering his attention on all the trucks & cars going by outside. She knows what Bugs loves ~ attention and vehicles!

Thomas Galore!

At the Strasburg R.R. there was a Thomas store complete with train table, tracks & trains. E-boy cried & cried when it was time to leave.

VERY, Happy Boys!

There is no place else they'd rather be. I think they were almost as excited as Uncle Rich!
