The beginning of the train obsession

Our sweet friend AJ told us about a model train exhibit going on in Plano, so we thought we'd go check it out with the kids. As soon as we walked in, Sam was hooked! I couldn't even get him to look at me for a picture...he would not take his eyes off the trains. It was the most still he's ever been. He literally just stared in amazement at the trains going around and around. It was fun seeing him in such awe :)

His favorite train set-up was the one they had set up on the floor...I think it's because the trains were bigger and he could see them better.

Had to get a picture with the girls too, to prove we were there as well :) Notice Sam still has not taken his eyes off the train!

Sam held on to that chain watching the trains for probably an hour (after we had already walked around for 2 hours looking at the other model trains). And when we finally had to leave, he held on to that chain as hard as he could and started screaming :) He let us know he was not even close to being ready to leave, but if we left it up to him I think we'd still be there! This was the day Sam's obsession with trains began :)
