DAY OUT WITH THOMAS 2007
(That just took forever!)
The first weekend in June we travelled to Baldwin City, KS to attend the 2007 Day out with Thomas. They hook up "Thomas" to an existing train and all the kids get to ride the train on about at 25 minute trip. There were also many other activities to keep us busy until our train departed. A magic show, jumpy rides, train tables, and of course a gift shop.

A hay maze.
Sam at the train tables, sporting his train sunglasses.
Sam got a tattoo of Thomas on his arm, and afterwards held his arm like this for a long time as not to ruin the tattoo. Here he is watching a Thomas video.
Sam the fireman, driving the Baldwin City firetruck.
Sam riding in the back of the firetruck (Where did he get those long legs?)
Here comes our train.
No trip would be complete without a picture with Sir Topham Hatt.
Sam and mom with Thomas.
Sam enjoyed the ride so much he slept the last 5 minutes or so.
Sam's gift shop purchase, a caboose with Day out with Thomas 2007 on it. We held on very tightly to it during the ride.

After the trip we went to Olathe, KS to spend the night. But first mom had to shop at the Great Mall of the Plains, which just happened to be across the street from our hotel. (How did that happen?) The boys enjoyed some playtime in an area they had for kids in the mall near the food court, while mom power shopped.
