A Day Out with Thomas

Noah has known for a couple of days that we had a "secret adventure" to go to today. Last night, we let Daddy-Ben tell him where we were going to get to go - to ride on Thomas! I imagine it goes without saying that Noah was pretty excited.

When we arrived at the Oklahoma Railway Museum for our Day Out with Thomas, Noah's excitement was so very evident - he practically pulled Nana over to see Thomas!

I don't think they could believe that he was really there!

We had tickets for the first ride of the day and arrived a little early, before all the other festivities really started, so the kids played on the playground for a few minutes before we headed to the passenger cars.

Both of them were thrilled to get on the train!

After the train ride, we made our way to the rest of the activities.

Ellie's favorite? Coloring, of course.

Noah pretty well enjoyed it all. He got a tattoo...

listened to a story, checked out the model trains, and even played miniature golf.

What he did NOT enjoy, however, was meeting Sir Topham Hatt.

Neither did Ellie.

Maybe next time.

All in all, the trip was a success!
