Revisiting the Past

This picture was taken in December 2007. After Christmas, we went on a short family trip before Dave's busy season at work started. We took Matt to see some of his first "real" trains (yes, he's seen daddy's work train but these are different) - I guess this trip is what started his immense love/addiction of trains. What I love most about this picture is the way Matt is looking at the train and how the steam, that is being emitted, surrounds the front of the engine - you have to love the Christmas wreath too. It looks like a scene out of a movie. I'm sure this year will consist of more train visits whether it be to see the big engines or the models trains. Either way I know Matthew will be happy.
