Fort Smith Family Day Trip

Yesterday we drove over to Fort Smith, AR for some family fun. 
I'd read online that the did trolley tours around the city and I thought the kids would love that. So we drove the 1 hour and 10 mins to Fort Smith and had a great time.
Our first stop was the trolley museum. After a quick potty break, we loaded up on the trolley. 
The kids were so excited. The entire time Bailey and I were in the bathroom, she kept saying "I hope the trolley doesn't leave without us".
Bailey was so happy to be sitting on the trolley. 
During the trolley ride, we had a historical tour of the city.
Tanner listened so carefully. He loved hearing about the military cemetery and the different battles. He's such a good boy.  
Tucker struggled during the tour, but he loved walking around the trolley. Then the motorman let Tucker ring the trolley bell. He was one happy boy! The bell was actually on the floor, so he got to step on it. 
Again, Tanner listening and being such a good boy. 
Bailey was really good too. As long as I was sitting next to her. 
Tucker loved sticking his fingers out the window. 
I just love these people!
Tucker was in my arms during most of the trolley tour. Tucker is a little attached to his momma. 
Then the tour ended back at the museum and the kids thought they were being so cute by sticking their heads through these little posts. It was so funny. Even Tucker got into it.

Tanner wearing the motorman hat. Love this little man. 

We explored the little village.  
For some reason, Tucker was immediately drawn to the saloon. Lol 
Then we explored some of the old train cars. 

Love these kids. 
Dad thought this engine was pretty awesome. It was massive. 
Then we drove over to the "Nickle and Dime Diner". It was an old train car that was made into a diner. Outside the diner was this massive giraffe and a Ferris wheel. The Ferris wheel was closed, but Tanner was thrilled with the giraffe. (It's his favorite animal)
The burgers were delicious and the fries were perfect. 
The kid meals were served in these cute little cars. The kids loved it. They brought them home afterwards. 

After lunch at the diner, we drove through "Braums" on the way home to grab some ice cream and then we headed home. The kids were so well behaved and we all had a great time. It was a fun, cheap family day and everyone enjoyed it. I just love my little family.
