Train Show

This past Wednesday, Gary, Vincent and I went to the train show at the botanical garden. There was an advanced screening for members, so we got to see it one whole day before everyone else. We have kind-of made it a tradition to go every year and have gone for the past several years. Each year its a little different. Vincent loves the trains and walking around the garden like he owns the place. There was a scavenger hunt for the kids too. Besides the train show, we also got to eat a delicious candlelit dinner at Sassafras.

This year, rather than the little towns and villages there were presents, nutcrackers and more plants than ever!

I loved this poinsettia arrangement!

Christmas wouldn't be complete without Poinsettias! I liked the ones with red and green leaves.

Overall view. The Christmas present trees were pretty cool but I couldn't manage to capture their awesomeness.

Look! There's a train! I have a few cute pictures of him pointing at the trains.

This was before you walked in. I just thought it was cute.

If you get a chance, go to the garden in St. Louis and check it out. You won't be disappointed!
