We love Thomas

At our house we love Thomas the Train.
It all began with Sam - has been his favorite since early on.
He teaches good lessons like patience and following directions.
Last night, DH surprised the boys with a Thomas Christmas Movie
and made us his famous homegrown stovetop popcorn.
Joe began the night in the boys' favorite spot.
And Sam was content in his stretch out spot by the tree.

But when Thomas got the star back to Knapford station
He had to get a closer look.
And by this time Joe had been in no less than 15 positions in the living room.
That's just how he rolls.

Sam was glad to listen to Sir Topham Hat
and see the largest snowman Sodor Island had ever seen.
I don't take time to watch cartoons often enough. Shame on me.
I enjoyed watching this eposide thru their eyes. With amazement and wonder.
And thanks DH for turning it into a fun and enjoyable Friday night in.
After the kids went to bed we laughed to our hearts content at Grown-Ups!
