Oh, what a vacation! (Part I)

We had such a wonderful time on our vacation! What fun it was to see family and to feel cool(!!!!). It. was. fantastic!

Here are some pictures of our "Day Out with Thomas" and the first time Andrew met Grandpa:
(Grandma Sandy was sick, so unfortunately, she was unable to attend the "Day Out with Thomas" with us.)

The one and only!

 

"It'll be our turn soon."

The event had several rides for families to enjoy
while waiting for their reservation time to board Thomas' coaches:

"Is it time yet?"

Yep! Here we are on "Annie"--Thomas' coach:

 

 

 Grandpa teaching Andrew to feel the wind:

He liked it!

 On another ride:

Andrew and Grandpa had only met about two hours before this picture

 Waiting patiently in line...

for this ride:

Andrew: "Choo-Choo!"

 

 

Then, we drove to Grandpa's house to spend the afternoon with him and Grandma Sandy.

 

Grandpa's ducks. Look at how the one is looking at Andrew:

 Chase time:

 Feed time:

 Checking out what's still in the garden:

Grandpa's popcorn popper:

Look at those eyes. They seem to be saying:

"You're letting ME do this?!"

 Now, she's gotten the hang of it:

So many "firsts" in one day!

 Running over the corn:

 Gifts from Grandpa and Grandma Sandy...

Indian jewelry:

 Look at those eyes! She's...

 HAPPY!

A feather, too?

 Yippee!!

 Andrew had to work very hard at "jumping" off the bottom step:

 Poor daddy was afraid (*wink*).

 

What a great day we had!
