A Day with Thomas the Train

With New Baby coming in the next month and a half, we wanted to spend some special time with Harper as a family of three.  We took Harper to Tweetsie Railroad in Blowing Rock yesterday.  It was a perfect day trip and only took us an hour and a half to get there!  Tweetsie Railroad had an awesome Thomas the Train event and Harper was able to ride Thomas around the park.  She loved it!  We rode trains and carnival rides, fed animals, and had a yummy ice cream treat.  After the park, we drove to downtown Blowing Rock for dinner.  It was a lovely day!
   
 There goes Thomas!
    
Harper was very excited to see all the trains!
    
    
    
We rode a few rides in the park before our scheduled time to ride Thomas.
    
Harper had her first race car experience!
    
    
    
   
We were very excited to be on Thomas the Train!
    
   
They had a politically incorrect shoot out between the settlers and "Indians".  There were quite a few kids with mullets shooting at the Indians on the train...
     
     
     
A horse came out at the end!
    
Waiting on lunch!
   
We rode a ski lift after lunch to the upper park for more toddler rides.
      
    
We met Sir Topham Hatt!  I have no idea who these characters are.
      
    
These boats went pretty fast!
    
    
    
Harper loved feeding the animals.
     
    
This baby goat was so cute!
    
    
    
We stopped for an ice cream treat.
     
We rode one last little train through a mouse mine.
