Choo-Choo!!

In case you haven't heard, Thomas the Train is where its at.
Thomas with his busting bumpers, fizzing fire box and pumping pistons have sucked both my children into his lame world on the Island of Sodor.
Saturday was the annual "Day out with Thomas" in Burnet.

We rode a passenger train led by Thomas himself, about 3 miles through the scenic Hill Country.
And when I say scenic, I mean the backyards of meth houses, laundry hanging out on a line, rust yards. Oh, and the nice wooded areas in between.

So excited to be riding a real train!


Suddenly too cool for Thomas



Enjoying the scenery


My Lovie.
Look familiar?

We escaped before we were bullied into buying any more Thomas paraphernalia; alas I can't say the same for SnowCones.

Later in the day, we had a visit from Granny and Grandpa.
They have a grandbaby night, while B and I went out to dinner...not fast food.

That GrandPa sure is a bebe magnet.

In addition to our busy Saturday, we have been enjoying the steady, much needed rain and getting ready for HALLOWEEN!
