Other happenings this week

We did do other things besides school this week. The hubby had Monday off work, so we decided to use a coupon we've had for a few months for a year membership to the Union Station Train Museum in Ogden. We haven't been down there for a while, so we figured it was a good time to go.

The girls were so excited when we pulled into the parking lot. We came here a lot when we lived in Ogden, but we haven't been since moving back from Kansas. They have been wanting to come - every time we drive past Ogden, they ask if we can go there sometime. We had a GREAT time!

The museum has a full-scale real trains, miniature trains, has an antique car place, a Browning gun museum (the hubby's favorite place to see there, he didn't take the camera up there, so we didn't get any pictures there), and several art galleries.

The kids keep trying to make this handcar train work. They just aren't QUITE strong enough!!














Here's the 5 of them on one of the big trains


















We watched the miniature trains while the hubby and A went through the Browning gun museum. E was completely in love with the trains. She kept running up and down the hall to see the different model trains go by.














Here's the girls in looking out a train engine














A took picture for a while. Here we are in the main lobby of the train station.
