On a recent trip to our mall (Hamilton Place), Rich and I noticed that there is now a super cute choo-choo train that kids and their parents can ride. We were in a bit of a hurry that day so we told Alana we’d come back soon and ride it together.

The train is adorable, and at $3 per person, you can hop in and ride for about 3 minutes around one wing of the mall…complete with a real driver and a few toots from the little horn!

And so yesterday, to recuperate from the (wonderful) 14 hour wedding day we shot on Saturday, Rich and I decided some family time was in order and off we went to the mall with an excited alana.

Here she is with the choo choo dues, which she promptly decided she didn’t care for and threw on the ground. I told her to give it to the nice man for our train ride and she humored me and handed it over Exchanging green paper is really very silly.

Alana and I rode the train while Rich took some pictures for us Thank you, honey!

All aboard! Our train ride tickets!

Waiting to leave the “station.”

The train is SO cute! I want one for our driveway We could ride it around the neighborhood – how cool would that be???

Waving at Rich…who was so sweet to follow our train around and document our ride. He’s the best – that’s all there is to it!

We sat all the way in the back – in the caboose!

I love the motion blur in this one! We had so much fun!

Here is Alana blowing kisses to Rich…

Hooray for fun train rides in the mall! Toot! Toot!

Have a fabulous week, everyone!!!
