Playing at the Mall in Fort Smith

When we were in Fort Smith, we met my mom at the mall's inside play area. The kids had a lot of fun, especially considering that the weather was rainy and cold. The play area had trees, bridges, boats, ladybugs, frogs, bees, water, etc.

Choo Choo

We met my mom (Granny Gill) at Creekmore Park for a picnic and visit with the kids. While we were there, the park was getting the train ready to run. Both kids were fascinated and wanted to ride the train.

Conall has been on it before, but was really interested because it is a steam train (they use diesel instead of coal to fire the engine). Caitlin has never been on it, but was really excited about it. As we waited in line (and it was a long line) to ride the train, Caitlin kept saying "choo choo" and pointing at it like she couldn't believe it was big enough for her to ride.

Caitlin loved the ride and giggled through most of it. She rode the first time around with daddy because there were limited seats. The second time around, she rode it with my mom and I. She let mom hold her through the ride.

For the next day or so, we heard about the "choo choo" and had multiple requests from Caitlin to ride it again (at least that seemed like what she was asking for).
