Connor and Thomas Together Forever

Hey Everyone,

Sorry for taking so long since my last post. I've just been consumed with thinking about Thomas the Train ever since I had a Day Out with Thomas. Only now can I look at these pictures and not feel a deep sense of loss over not being able to re-experience the day.


There he is. Simply put, I love him.
Gramma and Grampa were excited to spend time with Thomas too. They had heard me tell so many good stories.
Even Mommy allowed herself to get photographed. I was biting my nails in anticipation.
Once we were on the train my anxiety turned to sheer joy.
On the train ride we passed by the Snoqualmie Lodge.
And could look down the Snoqualmie falls.
At one point though, I felt like I was being watched from unseen eyes.
But, I forgot all about it once I got my hand tattoo.
And spent a fair amount of time in the tent filled with train sets on tables. There were lots of train sets to test drive.
Even Grampa got into the action. He's got skills.
Grampa is also tricky. When he wanted train play time to end, he got me a Popsicle to lure me away.
Not a bad deal for me all in all.
They also had a model train set with Thomas characters. Here is Percy making the loop.
But, when Daddy tried to take me into a small locomotive, I just had enough. Let's go home!!
Bye bye Thomas!
