We took Jacob to see Thomas and boy was he thrilled!! As we were driving into the lot, he spotted Thomas the Tank Engine and he went W-I-L-D! We could hardly unbuckle him from his carseat. It was worth the drive (Taylor crying like crazy). At the park, they had several stations for kids to either paint, blow bubbles, play in the jumphouse, get tattoos, and even play with trains and tracks. It was such a beautiful day and everything was just PERFECT. It was a great family outting.
Getting his first tattoo...
It was so hard to explain to him why it had to be washed off a few days after while bathing. He just could not understand that it was not permanent.
They had other trains running that day and it just added to the fun!
The souvenir store which we were gladly able to escape with just spending $30...lots of bribing to try to get outta there. My only regret...we bought him a CD with songs from the series and it is about the ONLY track he will let us listen to in the car. It has been over 6 months and we are STILL listening to all the songs on that CD.
Jeremiah has to be one of the coolest dads out there. He is so involved and hands-on with Jacob. I love watching them play...and quite honestly, very jealous as well. I wish I could do all of that with the both of them, but Taylor slept and wanted to be carried the entire time. We spent a couple of hundred dollars on a double stroller and uhhh..yeah...not happening with the lil man.

Finally on the train and he is ready to go! While on the ride they played one of the songs from the series and Jacob just stood up and started tapping his hand on the train. It was so cute. Jeremiah caught it on video. Unfortunately, because uploading videos take forever, we can't put it on the blog...we can, but I just don't have the patience. 
Sir Topham Hatt!! He wasn't even scared!
And of course a picture with Thomas the Tank Engine himself! I thought this was the best picture, but apparently not.
When we were there, we stayed in Capitola and it was not what we expected. It's nothing compared to Monterey! Anyway, while there we enjoyed Pizza My Heart and was able to pay a visit to the Boardwalk in Santa Cruz. Now, tell me why he chose the pink truck? I was disappointed.
