what started out as a quick trip down to discovery green to ride a free train turned into an all day affair chasing trains throughout houston. this little boy absolutely loves trains so we jumped at the chance to go and ride one. we figured we’d ride the train, eat lunch, let the kiddos play on the playground and then head home for nap time. ha! i should know better than to plan anything! we rode the train {multiple times!}, ate lunch {at a new and fun food court we found just blocks from discovery green}, and then the kiddos played for awhile on the playground.
lunch time for the little stinkers… 
playing at the park… 
then evan said “mommy and daddy – another train please.” brian and i looked at each other and i mentioned the one in hermann park so off we went. we hadn’t been on the hermann park train in years and it was super fun!! the kiddos loved it! {we were now well into nap time!!}
when we got off the train, evan said “i want to go see animals. go to zoo.” mind you, we hadn’t mentioned the zoo or anything. impressive that he recognized where we were!! we figured that if he was game, we would try it {the advantages of having a zoo membership!!} 
“i don’t wanna look at the camera!”
“evan, look at that dragon!!” 
by the time we were done at the zoo, it was dinner time so we called nanny & vanpa and met them in the memorial area for a little italian. both babies fell asleep in the car on the way there but woke up just enough to eat a little dinner. what a fun, but exhausting day!! we weren’t really planning on being out that long but sometimes spur of the moment trips are more fun anyway :)
