Last weekend, we decided to venture out to Union, IL to the Illinois Railway Museum for "A Day Out with Thomas". It poured rain all morning, but luckily our tickets were for the afternoon and it was sunny, clear skies. Both of our kids are pretty into trains right now and are quite the Thomas fans.
This is a steam engine that will be up and running in September at the museum.
Both kids are pretty fascinated by electric train sets and they had a huge one!
There was a cute Thomas story time that Nathan really liked because the Thomas story involved a jet plane.
This was our first view of Thomas coming down the tracks! I wish I'd gotten Emie's response on tape. Nathan knew we were here to ride Thomas, but I don't think Emie really understood until we saw him. She just kept saying "I'm so excited!".
Both kids got Thomas tattoos that have held up to several baths and swimming trips since.
They were both excited to meet Sir Topham Hatt as well.
It was a fun family day, but as you can probably tell from the red cheeks, it was hot!! Especially when we actually went on our Thomas ride. Quite the sweltering ride!
