A Day in Georgetown

Last weekend we did an early birthday present for Blake. We drove into the mountains to Georgetown and rode on the train! This train ride was an hour ride and a more beautiful view than the "Thomas the Train Ride" we did last year.  Blake is pretty obsessed with his trains so both the boys were very excited to ride a real train and Luke and I enjoyed it too!
Here was the train ringing his bell coming down the bridge to our train station.
The boys had their tickets and were getting excited waiting!
On the train!
Such beautiful scenery in the mountains with the river running through.
Blake loved hearing the train whistle
As it puffed up the hill it had huge funnels of black smoke which was pretty neat.
Halfway through the ride we stopped at the other station and then rode the loop back to our station.
coming back over the tall bridge
It was a great ride and we all had a lot of fun! Not enough that I was willing to pay $20 for this framed picture they took of us before we boarded- so I just took a picture of it instead. Good enough memories for me :)
a couple pics of the birthday boy- glad he had fun! 
The boys were hungry once we got done with the train, and luckily we packed a lunch. So we found this awesome park in Georgetown that the boys had a blast playing at, and had a picnic!
Riding the tire swing with my boys! Seriously the park was so cool I just wanted to play with them!
Trying to get Luke to smile- this was the best he'd give me, haha
There's a pretty little lake in Georgetown that we always pass along the highway, so we made a quick stop on our way out to take a look and so Jacob could throw some rocks in, and I could attempt to get a couple more cute pictures of the boys together.
Such cute boys. By the time we got on the road though, they were both out! It was such a beautiful, fun day together, and hopefully it will be a day the boys will remember for awhile!
