Thomas the Train



In June, we had the WONDERFUL opportunity to spend time with our dear, dear, dear friends, The Beards, that moved away to Alabama back in the fall!  They arrived late Thursday evening and we all headed to Connersville, IN to ride on Thomas the Train!  Both girls LOVE Thomas and had a fun time!  Although, I don't think I would ever do it again.  Tickets were ~$18 per person, including the girls, and the train ride was seriously 20 min, forwards, then backwards in a straight line.  All of the other festivities were FREE in the Thomas village.  Also, the 90 min drive there and back was a bit much.  The silver lining ... I had the chance to spend quality time with my dear friend Libby, chatting, catching up, and making memories with our kids!!   All the memories were worth the money!!! 

Best Buddies even though we are 7 hours away!

Thomas!!

Adele and Jackson ... hum ... future pair??

One of the girls favorite ride!

Day Out at Thomas!!

Have you ever been to the Thomas the Train event?  If so, what are your thoughts?  I know some people say it is worth the $18 per person b/c their kid just LOVES THOMAS SO MUCH ... but I just have a hard time justifying it.
