thomas & friends are coming to town!

Little J is gaga over choo-choos. So, he was thrilled when we took him to the Toons for Toddlers' Thomas & Friends Misty Island Rescue movie at Rainbow Cinema on Sept. 11.

He brought a little friend, and the two of them were super-cute sitting on their booster chairs watching the movie . . . for at least the first 30 minutes!
