A Day Out With Thomas

We were awesome parents this last weekend at took the kids to A Day Out With Thomas.   Its an event were the kids get to do various Thomas related activities and actually ride on Thomas.   It was at Greenfield Village this year which is only about a 45 min drive from our house.  

We decided to take a picnic lunch since I was starting The South Beach Diet and I didn't want to cheat.  I was worried the kids wouldn't want to sit and eat right after we got there but we all sat in the shade and had a good lunch before the fun began.

This is the front on Thomas.  He is huge.

 Whats a Thomas event with out lots of train tables.

 We had some sharing issues here, but it was a cool set up

 They had a gift shop obviously  and I was happy to buy the boys some sort of suvineer.  They had these great big Mylar Thomas balloons that the boys were very excited about.  Only problem was they were $10 each for a balloon.  I know they were cool and all but $20 for 2 balloons not gonna happen kids.  We settled on some cool Thomas shades.

 A nice lady took our picture while we rode the train.

You could go to the train after your ride and get your picture taken.  Sam couldn't take his eyes off Thomas, it was very cute.

We had a really good time.  The boys were on their good behavior and it went very well.
