Edaville RailRoad...

It's not Christmas without a stop at Edaville Railroad! That's how it was for my childhood and we're starting the same tradition with Alexander. It's even better that he loves trains! Edaville Railroad is a place that has a train that goes around so you can look at all the different lighted displays. They also have a few rides for young kids as well as a little museum about trains. Santa is also there through the month of December, but since we went after Christmas Santa was home resting after a long night.

We went Friday thinking that the crowds would be less packed, and when we got there it was pretty quiet. But as it got darker, the crowds filled in. We walked around a bit as we made our way over to the train. He enjoyed looking at the little houses and seeing the displays. We got on the train for our ride!



At first, Alexander didn't seem to understand that there would be lights outside but as we went around, he wanted to look outside! However, he didn't want Daddy to sit next to him so poor Daddy had to sit on the floor.

Then Alexander went on the Carosel and loved having Daddy & Grampie wave & yell his name everytime we went around. He would wave from his horse!

It was getting cold and Alexander was starting to get cranky so we knew we wouldn't make it for the fireworks, so we headed home. First trip to Edaville - fun!
