Trains At the Botanical Garden

We went today with Brooke's friend Evan to the Chicago Botanical Garden. The primary motivation was the train exhibit, which we had never seen. I wasnt too sure how they would react ... but here is a little hint: Yeah, they were pretty excited. We looked at the trains for about an hour-and-a-half, longer than Brooke tends to do anything. It was a pretty fantastic setup, 16 trains each with their own models and villages. Honestly, we were probably as impressed as the kids were!



There were a lot of trains that caught Brooke's eye:


But one was her favorite...Thomas!
