Thank goodness Monday was a holiday for Pete. On top of the kids both being sick all weekend, so was he. The poor guy had to rally all weekend for the kids that I think he probably is happy to be back at work today....
Sunday was less than "Funday" for us. Gracie was an all out disaster...
our (failed) attempt to play outside during this "indian summer" sunday
Braden on the other hand had slept all day Saturday and for more than 12 hours Saturday night and his battery was mooooore than charged! So by Monday morning when Gracie was drugged up and seeming a little on the up and up we packed up the mini and headed to Carver to
Edaville Railroad for "A Day Out with Thomas".
Braden was seriously beyond excited. This kid LOVES trains and more importantly LOVES
Thomas the Tank Engine. This was one of those crazy mom moments when you knew you were making your kids dream come true and all you can do is grin from ear to ear for the three hours that you are there. The day for him was filled with going on the ferris wheel with daddy, riding on the airplane ride ALL BY HIMSELF, riding Dumbo with Momma and most importantly taking the 2:10 trip on the Thomas Train as a family of four. It was a dream come true and I am SO happy that we woke up Monday and forced ourselves out of the house, germs and all, to provide our little guy with something he couldn't even imagine! Here are a few pics...
