Oh boy...I never, ever thought I'd go to one of these things! I think Thomas is totally creepy and have managed to keep Thomas and all his 'cheeky' friends out of my house thus far (along with Barney and Pokemon). Somehow, Noah caught the Thomas fever and has developed a serious infatuation (along with all things trains). So, how could I not take the kid to see Thomas in person when he chugged into town?!
I got up early, drove the 30 minutes to get the tickets before they sold out, then drove the 30 minutes home to get everyone ready to go. Off we went...until Noah threw up on the way out. Ugh. I'd already invested more than an hour of my morning and $65 in these tickets. We were going, dang it! Noah threw up again on the way there and I almost turned around then, but heck, we were almost there! "Let's just see what happens!", I told myself. And guess what happened!!? Noah threw up on the train! Luckily we caught it in Luke's blanket...TMI?! Awesome! Oh well, despite it all, Noah had a good time and I'm glad we stuck it out. I just wish he would have felt better so he could have enjoyed himself to the fullest. Here's the pics:
Waiting for Thomas to pull in...
Poor kid! He really was excited, just didn't have the energy to show it...
Playing in the giant sandbox they had set up...
Checking out the electric trains with Grandma and Grandpa...
And here we are on the train!
I love this picture - even if it was just before he yacked...mmmmm!
