a day with thomas the train!

aunt susu came in september and took the family to a day out with thomas the train. we didn't tell the kids and hoped they would have one of those "world's funniest video" moments when they saw the train. not quite. i think they were more overwhelmed with all the people, trains, etc. we had to park and wait for a bus to take us to the colorado railroad museum.

townsend and aunt susu on the bus.
after we walked into the event area we got back in another line to get on "thomas" for our 20 minute ride. the ride ended up being 3 times around the museum. kinda funny.

got my ticket!
after we got off the train, we waited in another line to get a picture in front of thomas. as soon as the next group of people got on the train it had to leave for the next trip. we got to the very front of the line and would have been next for our picture but the train left. oh well.
tattoos for everyone! james for ellory. she loves james.
marin got percy.
and townsend got thomas. of course.

we waited at a place where thomas would pass by and got this picture.
there was a petting zoo. i think marin was the least afraid. :)
and a thomas built all of legos.
and a firetruck that townsend got to sit in.

it was a fun morning. thank you aunt susu!
