To Market To Market

To market, to market, to buy a fat pig,

Home again, home again, jiggety-jig.

To market, to market, to buy a fat hog,

Home again, home again, jiggety-jog.

To market, to market, to buy a plum bun,

Home again, home again, market is done.

Ok so maybe we didn't buy a fat pig, a fat hog or a plum bun, whatever that is. But we did go to the Local Farmers Market one beautiful Saturday morning. 

The weather was excellent. We saw many fun and just too cool things! I can't believe I had never been to one before.

This particular day they were offering rides on a steam engine locomotive. (For a mere $10 a pop and they were sold out before we got there! Actually they sold out weeks before the event ever happened!!) I I had a jealous fun time watching all the kids hop on the train and go for a ride. There were some people giving away their extra tickets. I was on my way to beg for some of these tickets when my wonderful caring husband said, "it sure would be sad for us to take those tickets from kids who really want to go..." I agreed but in my head I thought "HECK NO!! I wanna go for a train ride!! This SUCKS!"

So I'm making it a plan to have a kid at next years train ride... so I won't feel badly if I need to beg for an extra ticket or two... :) 

Here are some pictures to commemorate the fun event. Oh did I mention we walked there? It was fun! On the way home we stopped at a junk store and had so much fun looking and talking to the owner. He is a believer and was full of passion for the lost. It was fun talking with him and hearing about his life. 

Ok now here are the pictures... 

I always have the most awkward smile when I do the 'self picture' thing... UGH!
The hubs is looking great as always! 

This was a train they were letting people and kids explore.

The steam engine!! (that we were NOT on!!)

My hubs and I by the 'prop' train.

I do believe we will! :) 

And there ends our fun morning out. We went home that day to do some serious spring cleaning. It was hard, it was ugly, but boy was it needed.
