Story Land

We had a very fun weekend in New Hampshire. Our friends Nate and Carolyn and their son Logan invited us up to go to Story Land. Andy took Friday off and we packed up early in the morning to make the 4 hour trip. Friday afternoon was rainy, so we went on the North Conway scenic railway. We all enjoyed the 55 min ride. We sat in the first car and must have greatly underestimated the volume of the whistle and the amount of crossings that it had to be blown at. Drew was a little scared and poor Harrison looked traumatized every time it blew. Luckily, the engine went to the other end of the train on the trip back. Drew was asking us all sorts of questions about the train on the way back, like "that engine pulled us?" "that loud noise was the train whistle??", it seemed like the coolness of the trip sank in after we were off.

On the way over to the railroad, Drew fell asleep with his hand still in his snack. He was wiped. He rarely misses a nap.

Logan and Drew bunked up and they did pretty well together. They had a blast causing all sorts of trouble around the condo together.

Saturday morning we went to Story Land (or Book Land as Logan liked to call it). Some of the lines were a little too long for the kids, but they had a really great time. They got in a lot of great rides, but we definitely have more to see next time. Drew was exhausted! He started asking to go home and take a nap...this is unheard of! We pushed him a little bit more but then he fell and skinned his knee pretty good and he was DONE. I think it is ironic because the one time I went to Story Land as a kid, I fell and skinned my knee and was miserable. Harrison was an angel all weekend long. I think he was making up for cranky sick baby that he was last weekend.

All in all it was a fantastic weekend and we are so thankful for our great friends inviting us along!!
