Our Day Out With Thomas 2014

Oh. My. Gosh.

I don't even know where to start. We had such a fun Saturday!
 

After Jacob woke up from his nap, we headed to Grapevine to catch a ride on Thomas the Train.

I had been hyping this up the whole week, but I don't think Jacob actually understood what I was talking about until he saw Thomas. His eyes lit up and a huge smile came over his face. My heart could literally explode, just thinking about his happiness in that moment.

We got our tickets at will call and proceeded to the boarding line. 

 

 

The ride before us pulled into the station while we were waiting, so we got to see Thomas in all his glory. All the kids cheered and yelled, it was seriously so cute.

We hardly waited at all and the train took off on schedule. (such a plus when dealing with this many kids)

Jacob had so much fun waving to all the people at the station and along the ride (which was only 25 minutes, by the way- perfect length!).

The Conductor came by and gave all the kids a Junior Engineer Certificate and said hello. And we sang songs and took too many pictures.

 

We really had such a fun time! We'll definitely do it again next year.

After the ride was over, we deboarded and attempted a few pictures in front of Thomas. Someone wanted to run around.
