The Trains at North Park

On Friday we took the boys along with Mimi and our good friends the Smith's (Zack, Julia & Mac) to see the Trains at North Park Mall. I knew that Conner would love it since he's always loved all kinds of trains, but I was truly surprised at how much Cooper and Carter enjoyed it. It's not that big of a place, but it still took us about 20-25 mins to walk through, since they were taking time to look at every last thing in each little 'town'. There was Mt. Rushmore, Downtown Dallas, a snow village, and Indian village, the White House, a circus and carnival and I'm sure others that I forgot. Oh...Thomas and Percy the trains. I would recommend it to anyone who's looking for a holiday tradition to do with their family! There are also other things to do in the mall, like a Scrooge show and a puppet show, but since we went after Christmas, those were not opened any more. We'll just have to be sure and go before Christmas next year. Here are some pictures of their faces as they enjoyed the trains.

"WOW!"
