The Saturday Outing: Kids Country

Technically: "Kidz Kountry", but that makes me bristle a bit.

Makes me want just a little bit of farmland (or a maple tree farm dad).

Elaine is certainly a fan of swinging. We now limit swing time and velocity due to the fact that you never know when that smiling face will suddenly turn green and fill her lap.

And even the ladies got to ride with daddy on Nicholas' favorite ride,

Thomas.

Every single time that little train rode by for the rest of the evening, which was many, many times, Nicholas let us know when it was coming and going.

Then we hardly ate any of our funny dinner.

And went on a hay ride--a very smartly caged hayride.

And this is not a tractor made out of old barrels. It is a train. It is Nicholas' very own Thomas train, than you very much.
