A day out with Thomas the train

My Tman has been obsessed with Thomas the train since he was about a year old. Everything Thomas became his favorite thing. This is why we threw him a Thomas the train themed 2nd birthday party. When I heard of "the day out with Thomas" event, I knew I had to take him. Boy did he have a blast. Not only there was a Thomas the train there, but there were also plenty of activities for the little ones.

I invited my mom and grandma to come with us. They love spending time with the boys so it wasn't really hard to convince them. We are so lucky

Inside the train station. Tman was still asleep from his nap but we woke him up shortly after getting there

Barely awake but super excited to meet Sir Topham Hatt

Somehow he was a little scared of Sir Topham Hatt when we actually met him

We went outside and Thomas was in the station so we took a family picture with him. Tman kept waving and looking at him screaming "Thomas" and "I am here Thomas". It was definitely funny to watch

They had a few rides for the kids. Tman was excited about this one but freaked out once it started. It just went up and down in a circle motion, I wouldn't have liked that either

He loved the Carousel, it's by far his favorite. He always requests this one when we go to amusement parks. Waving goodbye before they started moving

My grandma hung out with Jbird most of the time

Then we went to bouncing house and Tman was in heaven. He jumped right in like he's done this a million times and ran through the obstacles like a pro

We came back to the station and waited for Thomas to come back

And of course we took a family picture with Thomas

I love this picture with my Jbird, he is actually smiling :)

On our way out after a day of fun with Thomas

A beautiful end to an amazing day. My son actually told me he had the best time. If your child loves trains, look up this event near you and take your kids. You will be glad you did.

My only regret was not planning early enough which resulted in us not being able to ride the train because the tickets were sold out. Next year, I will plan ahead so that I can get us tickets to actually ride the train. That will be the cherry on top of the cake I think.

Speaking of cake, we came home and there was a cake waiting for me

I had an awesome birthday celebration and so much fun at the day out with Thomas. We are definitely going again next year. Jbird will be big enough to have some fun too.
