Chugga chugga choo choo

It's hard to find fun things to do in the winter with just me and the boys, so I was happy when I heard about the train show today at Thanksgiving Point. Trains are not really my thing and I wouldn't say the my boys LOVE them, but it was pretty cool and we were quite impressed. I know, there's alot of pics and they don't really show how detailed and cool everything was, but you get the idea.

For all you Harry Potter Fans . . . (sorry I didn't actually get a picture of the Hogwart's Express that was going around.) This display was huge and totally cool. It even had Hagrid's house, dragons, etc, etc.




We loved the Lego display. This was really an amazing collection and obviously took alot of work. It had several different parts that I didn't even get pictures of. These pictures don't really do it justice. It was cool.


They really did have fun despite the dull look on their faces.

Maxwell Family Reunion


We recently had a super fun reunion with my dad's side of the family. It has been almost 10 years since we were all together. It was great!! My sister did the majority of the planning and what a great job she did. I think everyone had fun. My grandma had four of her children there, 19 grandchildren, and 35 great-grandchildren - when you add in spouses there was a total of 76 people! From the pics you can see that we did alot of fun activites. It was so good to see everyone! I can't wait for the next one!


My family, everyone except my niece Haley.
