Our Day at the Park

Natalie, our friend Mandy, and I took our kids to Cleveland Park today. The weather was so beautiful. The kids enjoyed playing on the playground together.

Before we left, we rode the train. We were the second group to ride. When we first got there, the kids got so excited because they saw the man working on the train and cleaning it up. He came out and said that he was going to give it a test run, and then people could ride it. We let the first group go before us because there were so many people piling in to ride it. The man told everyone that we were lucky because we were riding the refurbished original train from when the park first opened. We went slow on the first lap, but the conductor put the pedal to the metal on the second lap...seriously...like, super fast. Mandy described it as a roller coaster ride. I've never in my life seen or ridden that train going so fast. The accident happened right after we left the park. Thank God we didn't stay longer.
