Still loved after all these years

When Simeon was about 2 years old a toy store went out of business and all their Thomas Trains were half off. That started our collection of these awesome wooden trains. We've added to our collection over the years.

Rebecca asked to get them out and make a track to play with. We used almost every track we had and made a really big and fun track. When the big kids came home they all gravitated to the track and started playing on it together.

I love how all the kids play with them and have such a fun time together. Simeon and Ammon made the longest train they could. Rebecca was being as patient as she could be with their train that was getting in her way and braking because it was so long.

These cute trains will be part of our family for many years to come. They've already earned a spot in the "Keep for the Grandkids" collection!

The Zoo Rebecca and mom built

Here is one of the Zoo Keepers.

 The puppies and the kittens share a bed. The Alligator has nobody to play with, so he can play with the Zoo keeper. The Zoo Keepers going to lock the alligator in for the night, because they don't want them to come out. That's the rule! Lock, lock, lock.

The Jaguar, lion and elephant have food, water and something for the zoo keeper to eat and drink. Water and marshmallows. No apple juice, marshmallows and syrup.

Will the lion eat the elephant? No because it's nice.

This is the Zoo Keepers bedroom. They like their bed, rug, table and house. That's all about them.

The zoo keeper with the keys locks the doors. The zoo keeper with the flag says "no people in the zoo at night."

 This is the pool for the Zoo Keepers.
