Tiny Town!

On Monday, we went to Tiny Town, which is about a mile from where we were staying. It was so cute! It had all these little houses with a ton of details inside the window. We packed a picnic lunch, bought our train tickets, and headed into the park. We noticed that there were some clouds, but it was hot...so we weren't worried. After about 15 minutes of looking at the houses, we headed to the playground. That was when we felt a couple of raindrops, but we were going to tough it out! We decided to eat lunch while it began to downpour! We literally had to hold the umbrella (which just happened to be in the back of our car!) over our children as they ate! Dae-Sung and I were getting soaked! As we began to realize that the rain wasn't letting up, I grabbed Abby and DS grabbed Caleb and we ran to the car...and had our picnic in the car. As we were eating though, the rain got harder and harder, and eventually, we found ourselves in a full on hail storm. The kids were scared, and having grown up in Colorado, it brought me back to several hail storms where my mom's strawberries and roses were ruined! Needless to say, we didn't get to ride the train, or even play on the playground, but my kids experienced their first hail storm!
