Kidnapped!!!

Kara took Myla and I to the world famous Tiny Town and Railroad! Our first summer trip as a family for the year. Myla had the best time looking in all the windows of the buildings and some that she could actually crawl into and play. She helped herself all the way around some of the tiny buildings, picked up rocks and pine cones and whooped every time the train whistle blew.

The history of the little town is cool too. It was originally built in the late 1800's by a rich man as a playground for his daughter, then it was burned down, flooded, rebuilt and then auctioned, rebuilt and is a popular attraction now-a-days. They had three scaled down trains just big enough to haul passengers around the park, which Myla and I had to do.

By the end, Myla was exhausted and slept in the car on the way home and slept some more once we got home. We started giving Myla different words to try and say like fish, Scott, Aimee, car, and she does! She is such a joy. Please enjoy the pictures of our day.
