Our Day out with Thomas...
Just wanted to share yesterday we went to see Thomas the Train...
I about fell over when I saw Mr Mason's face of disappointment he truly wanted to get on Thomas where the conductor was at. I knew it wouldn't be possible with out starting a riot of others wanting to do it to so I had to talk him out of it by telling him Thomas was so tired of pulling the other cars and he needed to rest, LOL He bought it but then asked me how come Thomas didn't talk to him, omgawshhh he was killin me. I was seriously laugin' my butt off on the inside. I distracted him by saying don't you want to get on the rides, he's to tired to do anything right now....  Let me just say that even for an 8yr old who said to me when we got there, this is for lil kids not for me. Before we left he said to me mom, dad Thank you for bringing me. I had a really good time awwww big hug afterward and no other words were said!

We did this with my 5 year old who has loved Thomas for so so long. I think he has 4 or 5 train tracks. This year though he told me that he wanted to give ALL his thomas away to children who don't have any. He is now into Legos.
But we did have a great time when we went. Stephanie

I want to do this sooo badly!! Yes - me! LOL! My son loves trains... but there is something about Thomas that bugs him... he likes playing with Thomas trains... he has a bunch, but DO NOT put on a Thomas DVD on... he will go running and you will find him crying in a fetal position on our bed! I asked him (he is 4) if he wants to go see Thomas and he says, "No, thank you!" *sigh* I hope that once there he will be excited to just see the trains... I still have convince my hubby to go...
For those that have gone - did you have less crowds going during the week than the weekend?

How old is Mr Mason? That looks like so much fun! We were thinking about doing this with our little man who will be 3 in July (and Thomas would be a few hours from us in Sept) - he's a Thomas fanatic! Is it worth a drive, would you say?

That sounds like so much fun! We just found out that Thomas will be near here in July, so we were thinking of going.
DS LOVES choo choos. He inherited a TON of Thomas trains and tracks from some friends of ours, and even though we've only given him a couple he just loves them to death. When we were choosing out his underwear, he chose the "choo choo" underwear, and he loves them. Also, when we are out shopping he'll point at Thomas and say "choo choo". We were thinking that a trip to see Thomas would be fun, even though he hasn't seen the show. They will be nearby in July, which is a month before he turns 2. Do you ladies think he would love it? Or should we wait until he's more familiar with the fact that they are more than just choo choos? We were just trying to plan on some fun "staycation" activities for the summer since we'll have a newborn and thought Thomas would be perfect, but maybe he's still too young.

Sara, Mason is 3 n-half and he loved it, they had free rides, clowns, face painting, story telling, & magic show. Food was for sale and it was at a train museum we could see other one's on the side and stuff.
We got to ride a train to and from and some families went but didn't ride TTT they just hung out. The kids and DH really liked it and we want to go again next year
