Wordless Wednesday: Holiday Train

I was so bummed that I forgot about the holiday train that stops in our little town every year. They do food collections at each stop for local food shelves. I haven't been getting our local paper this year so didn't even realize the train was coming...until I drove into town to pick Buddy up from basketball practice.

It's really cool because they put on a musical show inside one of the cars for about 1/2 an hour. It's a wonderful night for families. Next year!

    That is so fun! I need to figure out what my town does that's interesting. So far I know of nothing!

    I know the feeling, I totally forgot about the Santa Parade one night - and it was gorgeous that night. I felt terrible. Glad you got a peek though!

    That looks so cool!. You reminded me to take our boys to see all the lights in the park some time this week. It has been so mild and there is no snow so it will be perfect !

    Happy Holidays.
