A Really Useful Engine!!

Anyone know who I'm talking about?? THOMAS!!! Levi has loved Thomas from the very first moment he saw him!! It was probably a little over a year ago and he still loves Thomas, maybe even more! He has all kinds of Thomas trains, thanks to my awesome cousin Trista who is letting us borrow them!! He immediately learned all their names and loves to play with the trains and watch Thomas movies. Every year the Whitewater Valley Railroad has a "Day Out With Thomas" in Connorsville, IN where Thomas comes to visit!! It's pretty neat and Levi had a blast! The Thomas train is HUGE and we got to take a 30 minute ride! The train cars were very old and I had never been on a train before. Super fun! Although the weather was super hot, we went on a Friday night so there weren't many people there at all. So we didn't have to wait for anything! Levi got to see Sir Topham Hat, miniature trains, animals, he got a Thomas tatoo, and of course, Thomas! When Thomas pulled up and Levi saw him, I got a little teary-eyed just knowing how excited and amused Levi was. Crazy Mom, I know!!

Here are some pictures of our fun day!

Levi Saying "Come on, Mom! Let's go see Thomas!"

Here's Thomas!! This is our first view as we were getting ready to board the train. All aboard!

Levi picked out his seat!

All of us on the train. It was sooo hot, so we stayed close to the windows to catch the breeze.

Poor Mallory, she was so hot! But she had alot of fun too!

Daddy with the kids. Scott had a fun time too!

Off the train and ready to finally meet Thomas!!


There's Thomas!!

Daddy, Levi, and Thomas!

Levi didn't want to turn around to take a picture because he didn't want to stop looking at Thomas!

Levi at the petting zoo....he ALWAYS loves animals!!!


Mallory is having fun while Levi pets the animals!
