My grandparents came into town last weekend and we had such an amazing visit with them. They had not yet met Quinn as they are snowbirds and we have missed each other several times. It was such a joy to see them and even more fun that the kids warmed right up to them. We had plenty of meals, great conversation, and a lot of fun! The first morning they were here we opened up a train set that has been passed on to our family. My great uncle is convinced that this train he found in an antique shop was the EXACT train that he and my grandfather played with growing up. He bought it, boxed it up, and mailed it from California to my grandfather. We are the only ones with little kiddos now so we gladly inherited it! Grandpa, Grandma, and the kiddos spent the morning setting it up in Canon's room. It was so exciting to watch it run (Grandpa is an engineer and after some sandpaper got the train running like new!) It was a fun way to spend the cold day in together.
My great uncle wrapped each piece in bubble wrap and had it all labeled as to exact locations and uses of the parts.....so we had the fun job of unwrapping all of it. I think Quinn liked this part the best!
After it was all unwrapped we had this....
Time for the set up
I just loved this picture....something about seeing them play together that's so sweet
The first time around
Had to add Christmas presents to the cargo car
Thanks for setting it up Grandpa and Grandma!
