Christmas Train Ride

We decided to take the train out to California for Christmas, and it turned out to be a pretty fun adventure. The sleep was rough, but the day trip was great -- lots of focused playtime for Landon and Ellie, beautiful scenery, room to move around and play for the kids -- and just a fun, memorable excursion. :) We sat in the sightseeing car all day and enjoyed the scenery and our kids while they walked, climbed, crawled and played around.

Watching the sun rise over the desert-- one great benefit to a 5:00 kid wake-up call :)

Beautiful views!

Fun times climbing, coloring, sight seeing...

Making friends

We made it! :)
