One more vacation post

Each day we did something out of the ordinary with the boys while on vacation.  We had heard that Thomas the train was in town.  Of course to actually ride Thomas we would have ended up paying with body parts, so we opted for a longer more relaxing train ride and were still able to enjoy the other Thomas fun.

I think our ride home may have been my favorite part of the trip.  It at least came in close second to the awe and wonder on the boys faces as they walked into story land.  What made this journey home so much fun?  Rivers. 

We dressed the boys in there swim suites, packed the car and head in the direction of home, only stopping when ever and where ever we thought there might be a nice little swimming hole.

To sum it up:

Restful.

Mud scrubs-good for the skin and entertaining for the wee one.

Refreshing.

"Momma look I found a shiny mineral!"

Smiles from ear to ear.

Shouts of joy.

Knee deep one minute over your head the next.

So good.
