A Day Out With Thomas


Today, Joshua got to meet Thomas the Tank Engine...the real big Thomas the Tank Engine. We woke up this morning, put on our conductor cap and got on the road (Thomas was about 2.5 hours away). Joshua could not have been more excited...As you will see from the pictures below it was a great day and Joshua had so much fun.


It's hard to see with this hat on...

Pure Joy.


On the train, playing with one of two new trains picked out at the conveniently located Thomas gift shop...I thought he was going to lose his mind amongst all the Thomas stuff. (Thanks Grandmom in Philly...we used birthday money for this)


trying to wrestle with a toddler for a photo op is not always sucessful...

after riding Thomas, we played trains...for a long time...






and soon we got to mee Sir Topham Hat ...Joshua started with the hug...too sweet.




after Sir Topham Hat there was a showdown over Gordon at the train table, which led to our first and only full blown meltdown of the afternoon. Upon my observation, every toddler there had at least one...so we were doing just about right. Nothing that some ice cream and Mommy's lap couldn't fix.
Overall it was truly a wonderful afternoon. One that I will never forget and I am pretty sure he won't either...well at least for awhile :)
