Ogden Union Station

Last Saturday (March 5) Brad, Connor, and I went to the Ogden Union Station. They hosted a model train museum for one weekend. There were tons of model trains running on tracks, thousands more for sale, cool pictures of trains, men in conductor suits and overalls, a big steam engine that we could climb on, and even an old model car show. Admission was $6 each (young children are free), but a man gave us 2 of his family's extra tickets for free! What a deal!









Later that afternoon, we headed down to Murray, UT to visit my cousin and her husband. LaRisse and I went shopping at Gardner Village (and favorite pastime of our parents when we were younger) while the boy (Brad and Nick) stayed home to play Call of Duty together. Everyone had fun in their respective elements. :)

We met the boys for dinner at a Mexican restaurant in Salt Lake (which was delicious!) and then headed to The Sweet Tooth Fairy for dessert. If you've never been there, you are missing out on some of the most delightful cake bites, cup cakes, and cup-shakes (vanilla ice cream blended with your favorite cupcake) that you will ever taste in your life. That's a promise.

After we headed back to their house and put Connor to bed. The boys played more of their game while LaRisse and I talked and played nail salon. She did my nails with Shellac, which I absolutely loved!

It was a fun day. Thanks for playing with us Nick and LaRisse! We can't wait to do it again!

wow how fun! I'm sure Connor had a hay day! Addie has been really into trains and busses lately, so i looked up taking her on a train ride and they are REDICULOUSLY expensive! I'm a tad jelous we don't have somewhere like that here, and especially where it is a resonable price!
