BNSF Family day

 Every September BNSF has a Family day in the back of the campus.  They have tents with food, crafts for the kids, raffle tickets, and train displays.  It is a lot of fun.  We showed up early and the kids were able to do all the fun activites without waiting in line.  We had lots of yummy dilly bars from Dairy Queen and hot dogs, chips, and bbq sandwiches.  A fun Day!
 This is the first thing Callie did.  Preston was not interested.  She enjoyed it. 

 Go Callie!
 Then the guy in the orange needed an adult to go on the other trampoline and no one was willing too.  I said I would be up for it.  It was really fun and it was free, so why not!  The guy even taught me how to do a back flip.  Taylor of course didn't get it on camera.  But it was cool to say I did a flip. 
 Callie thought it was neat that we were doing it together. 
 This year they had a small zip line.  Preston waited in line with Taylor and Callie and found out he couldn't ride with his Daddy.   He was out.  Callie did great and wasn't scared until she hit the wall at the end.  But it was padded and no big deal. 
 There she goes. 
 Lots of different bounce house's too. 
 They dressed up in BNSF gear and were able to move cranes with a remote control and knock over cones. 
Preston moving the crane to knock over the cone. He did really good.
 
 Callie's turn.  The man helping let Callie take control.  She had a harder time knocking over the cone. 
 

 Onto crafts.  They painted wooden trains with sharpie paint pens.  Not messy and the kids sat there for an hour.  They didn't want to leave. 
A miniature train city.  A lot of work to set this up.
