Trent's First Train Ride

During the last couple of weeks of May, we planned a vacation in record time. Trent's grandparents (Matt's parents) wanted to take Trent to New Orleans on the train, so we decided to take Jack via car and meet them down there. Trent was SUPER excited about the trip for days. He kept asking, "Am I gonna ride the train today?" When Monday finally arrived, Trent could hardly contain himself. We got everything packed up and dropped Pop, Nana, and Trent off at the train station.


Trent was all smiles on the way to the train station! He was so excited.


He and Pop waited patiently for the train to arrive. (I should probably change that to NOT so patiently.)


Trent loaded the train with his bag full of tricks (snacks, toys, books).


Pop loves Trent so much. He will do just about anything to keep him happy. Here he is reading him a book on the train ride.


After a while, fatigue finally set in. Trent was so exhausted. According to Nana and Pop, he took about a 45 minute nap on the train.

As soon as we got home from our vacation, Trent's first request was for Matt to get his train set out of the attic. He has been playing with his trains alot since we got home. :)
