Union Station . 06.16.2012

Saturday we took advantage of free admission at the Union Station Museum!  We didn't really know what to expect from the museum, but figured the worst case scenario would be if Ryder didn't like it, we would just spend time outside with the real trains.

Turns out, Ryder LOVED it!  The "Museum" is really more of a large-scale gallery.  But, it was the perfect size for Ryder.  He enjoyed the various displays and models, but especially loved the model train course!

After spending time inside, we took the boys outside where we explored the trains.  As always, Ryder had so much fun walking around and climbing on the trains!

Of course, we attempted a few family photos...

And, I had to get one of just Patrick and Ryder in their matching shirts...Patrick has had his for years, and I recently found the same shirt for Ryder - same store, but probably 5(?) years apart!

Harvick and Jarrett took a break from being carried, and played in the rocks!

Finally, when it was time to leave we were prepared for Ryder to want to stay...but, he was so good - told the trains bye, and was willing to leave...I asked him if he would take one more picture with me, and I'm so glad I did...

We had a fun (and free!) Saturday.  I never imaged walking around at Union Station could be so fun...but, through Ryder's eyes, it was the best time!
