Train Tradition

Its train time at the Barnes house... Every year John sets up his dads train set that he inherited. This is a train that John's dad set up every year while John was growing up and some of the pieces are over 50 years old. John starts setting it up the weekend of Thanksgiving and then he spends every spare minute working on it. We always have a little open house to show it off to people. This is our favorite Christmas tradition that we do. You are all invited to come! Here is the invitation...

Oh Allison - can we come? We have great memories of coming to your house in Spokane to see the train. Remember the night that Santa came down the street and all the kids ran out barefoot to get candy canes! Merry Christmas! We hear it is a white one. Us too! we have like 17 inches of snow.
