Last Saturday, we got up early and went to Burnet to see the real Thomas the tank engine! We didn't tell Brayson where we were going, mainly because we didn't want to hear him yell Thomas the whole trip! When we got there, it didn't take long before Brayson spotted Thomas! It was the cutest thing. Luckily I captured the moment on video. We all had a great time riding the train and going to the gift shop. I bought a few Christmas gifts while we were there (first ones for the year, yikes!!). I'm so glad we took him to see Thomas, even though he'll just remember it through photos. Enjoy my video and pics!

The conductor was nice and took our picture.

Saying farewell to Thomas. :(
After we left Burnet, we went to Brayson's friend Payton's birthday party at the park. Brayson had so much fun! He loves Payton, as you can tell in the photos below!!

If you haven't seen Blaire's Middle School dance blog, check it out. It's the next one! She's really growing up fast!! I posted it just yesterday, so I thought it might get overlooked if I didn't mention it in this blog. Thanks!!

Middle School dance

Blaire's first school dance was a couple of weeks ago. I'm just now finding the time to blog about it. She had soooo much fun! She was a little dissapointed that a boy didn't ask her to dance, but her daddy and I weren't! Darby and I were chapperones, much to Blaire's disapproval! We had a great time as well. Here are some pictures of Blaire with some of her friends and also a video of her dancing.
