I promise to post more about our Christmas later -- an update and pictures from my NEW camera (hooray!)
But for now, a bit of pre-Christmas pictures!
We tried to keep the kids occupied and busy before Christmas. So one thing we did was get out some older toys that we don't play with much -- mostly because they take up room or need to be put together or both!
One of their favorite things to play with is our Thomas the Tank Engine train set. We play with it quite a bit, but normally don't put the whole thing together. We did this year. It took up our whole living room!
This picture doesn't show the whole thing. We added more so it would go around the tree -- it really did take up the whole room!
At one point we were all down working the different switches on the track and trying to keep all the engines running. It took all of us -- including my parents (who were here for Christmas) to keep things flowing smoothly!
We all had fun playing with it!
I'll be trying to catch up on all my posts and reading over the next few days! I hope everyone had a very Happy Christmas!!!!
Looks fun!!!
ReplyDeleteHoly cow, that thing is huge! Looks like fun, but I am glad no one got that at my house, LOL!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a train set! Last year my children finally decided they were reasy to donate their train set to charity. I kinda miss it myself - they can be so much fun!

ReplyDeleteI love train sets too! .... AT YOUR HOUSE...LMAO!!! I would lose my ever loving mind if I had that in my living room!
ReplyDeleteGreat Pic's looks like everyone had a great time!
that's cool!! It is hard to let the kids play with something that takes up so much room but does make it that much more fun & special when you do finally get it out.
