They meet at last...

Yes, our little man got to meet his favorite toy...buddy...friend, thing. Last weekend all four of us traveled too far (and with way too much drama) to see Thomas the Tank Engine on "A Day Out with Thomas." The pictures should tell you all you need to know. Hundreds of kids (many with frustratingly oblivious parents), carnival food, games, jumping castles (complete with real vomit), four - Yes, FOUR - train tables of various kids for four hundred Thomas fans. Can you spell CONCENTRATED CHAOS. But, all in all, we managed to have a really good time. Izzy took her picture with Sir Toppam Hat while Andrew vied for a spot at a train table, and we all went on a ride with Thomas. It was really a beautiful day, wonderful weather, and great memories. That is, until the overly dramatic drive home. Conclusion: "A Day Out with Thomas" was fun, but way too far away.

We wanted to do this, but it was the same weekend at the wedding. I hadn't thought about how crowded it would be! CRAZY!!

Hi Polloks!

Rachel and I did this with our playgroup a few weeks ago, and we agree, the drive to Rusk, Texas was WAY to far!!

Hope all is well,
