Thomas the Train

This weekend, we spent Saturday at a local Thomas the Train festival. Every year, in a little Alabama town about 30 minutes south of us, Thomas the Train makes an appearance, along with about a dozen fun activity tents. Thomas himself is about $20 a person to ride, but all of the activities are free. So, in true Wagner style, we skipped the train and enjoyed all the freebies :). There was putt putt golf, a bouncy house, a tent with train tables set up, a huge sandbox, a bubble tent, tattoos, a petting farm, and a vintage train with a Thomas storyteller inside. We did it all, and Caleb had a lot of fun. Ethan would normally have enjoyed himself tremendously, but he had spiked a fever the night before and was not feeling up to par. (Thankfully, it proved to be a less-than-24-hour thing, since he was fever-free and playing like usual by Saturday night.) Maybe in a year or two, when both boys are old enough to remember it, we'll pay so that they can ride the train :)
