Country Village

We made a trip out to Country Village in Bothell to see the Christmas decorations and ride the train.

The weather was nice enough, and the village was adorable.  However, a note for anyone else who might have this brilliant idea; it would be useful to know that in the winter, the train doesn't run on Tuesdays or Thursdays.

The kids were surprisingly okay with the disappointment, although we did have to answer a whole lot of questions about why the train was "closed today".  But, Cecily got to chase some chickens and Parker climbed the pirate ship and ride a bunch of carousel horsies.

We also finally managed to go out for Keith's birthday lunch, only one day late.
