Celebrating 125 years in Cajon

Wil has worked for the BNSF railroad for 5 years now and we all LOVE that he works for the railroad.  The best job that we could have asked for since we have been married.  Wil works very hard for our family and we appreciate him so much.  The railroad did a little celebration to show people what the railroad is all about...Here are some pictures of my kiddos with their daddy that in their imagination (drives the trains, fixes the trains, works on the train tracks, fixes the signals and gates, drives the high rail truck up on the tracks...you name it they think their daddy does it!)  But between you and me Wil works for the signal department and he puts in new and updates old signals, switches, and gates.  I won't tell my kids that though.  In their eyes DADDY is the only reason the trains are still running;)
 Zach and Ashlyn after touring a REAL train...they thought it was so cool to be up on the train!
Balloons spelling out BNSF...my kids thought it was so cool

Zach, Ashlyn, and Mady with their HERO
Zach, Ashlyn, and Mady with DADDY in front of a High Rail truck like the one their uncle Anthony used to drive when he was working for the railroad.
This was by far their favorite part.......being able to see up close what daddy gets to do everyday.  they loved pushing the buttons and watching the gate go up and down and watching the signal light change from red to green....
This is the kind of high rail that Uncle Anthony drove last when he worked for the railroad.  Zach thought it was so cool and said I wish our big red car had wheels like that so that we could go on the train tracks too!
And what train celebration would be complete without a kid sized train ride.  They loved it!
