Visit from Uncle Mark and Aunt Jessica

Mark and Jessica arrived last night and this morning we made it out for breakfast at IHOP and then to Burke Lake Park. Little did we know it was the opening day of the train and the dedication of a new engine. All the Fairfax big wigs were there including Gerry Connelly, who got front seat of the first train to leave the station. The place was packed. We still got on the 4th train ride of the season and even got a commemorative pin when we got off. Best of all, the train rides were free for the day. Mark and Jess also brought the kids first round of birthday gifts. What a loot!!! They got a workbench, Home Depot tool box, BBQ grill, and a farm house. They really liked the toys.
