So how cool is this?? All of us got to go on the famous train ride from Durango to Silverton. Wow- it was SO BEAUTIFUL! Tons of gorgeous waterfalls, and rivers, and cliffs... And the kids loved it. Thanks mom and dad! 
Yep- I know- I'm a pretty bad mom to let my 2 year old stick her head out of the train... but seriously- how cute is that??? The hard part was actually getting her head back in.
Yeah, of course, Mary didn't really sit for very long. But actually she did pretty good. She stayed by us most of the time.
Karson was having a great time- he was the one to always spot animals and waterfalls. He was so cute- just soaking it all in.
There are a few places where you are right on the edge of the cliff- you can just look straight down. It was a little creepy, but so darn pretty!
This is Silverton- we didn't have as much time as we would have liked, but thanks to our crazy (yet insanely awesome) tour bus driver we got some great views. Actually- I thought we were going to die for a little bit there on the steep cliffs he was driving up... but we did it! Anyway though, we ate at this place called "The Bent Elbow". So good! It had the "old west" feel to it- even a guy playing the piano. It was awesome.
If you're ever looking for a little adventure that has beautiful scenery you can't see anywhere (or any way) else, I highly recommend this train ride. You'll be amazed!

It looks like your kiddos had a blast. They are really great picture takers. I am glad that all the you family got to go on vacation. Family vacations are the best when you have Brothers and sisters and cousins to go with.
