First Christmas Present

We had Nana & Papa over for Sunday dinner and they brought the boys' first Christmas present. It took up our entire living room and took 3 people 20 min. to set up. But what a present! Papa's hobby is building model railroads and he has several great ones at their house, including 2 big ones that run around the Christmas tree most years. This year he started in July and built sets for each of his 3 sons' families. Each has an oval track, about 5'x15', and ours includes an engine, a boxcar, a gondola, and a caboose. The cars are about 18" long and a foot high. It's all electric, has variable speeds, and can run in reverse. The boys were enthralled, naturally, and we are happy to be the owners of this new family heirloom. Don't know where we'll store it, but who cares - It's Awesome!
