Joshua chose to ride on a train this year instead of having a party, so we celebrated as a family on Tuesday and then I brought in cupcakes (Thomas the Train, of course) for his class on Wednesday.
Since Joshua's birthday choice was to ride on a train, we went up to Branson to ride on the Branson Scenic Railway. The train ride is about an hour and forty-five minutes of scenic overlooks that were especially pretty this time of year with the changing leaves. Jeremy had a day off in the middle of the week, so we took advantage of it and went on a Thursday. It wasn't too crowded, and the kids all had a blast!
The excitement on their faces totally made up for the "we didn't nap long enough" crying in the car on the way home! Happy third birthday to my sweet Joshua!
Looks like SO much fun!! What a great way to celebrate his birthday!
