I love you Thomas!

Last week I bought tickets for the fam to go to the "Day out with Thomas" in Golden. They have a life-size Thomas train that pulls cars you can ride on and lots of activities for the kiddos to do. We went to one in Branson several years ago and the kid loved it. We decided not to tell the kid what we were doing, just that we had a surprise for him.

We got up early this morning and headed down to Golden (about an hour drive) and got there around 8am. The kid's getting too smart because after we parked, he read a sign that said "Bus to Thomas" and he put two and two together and FREAKED OUT.

We rode Thomas (the scenery was beautiful from the open car):

They also had several large electric train tracks set up that the kid liked.


We met Sir Topam Hat:



And since this was at the Train museum, they had LOTS of old trains that we could climb around and on:




And now for the title of this post. The kiddo kept saying, "This is the best day of my life!", which I thought was really sweet. But, at one point Thomas drove by:


and the kid screamed "I love you Thomas!".

He had a wonderful day and we had a great day watching him enjoy it.
