Thomas & Friends Weekend Away

This Thanksgiving didn't include any Turkey dinner ... I know some of you are gasping for breath at the moment, but I'm sure you ate enough for us aswell!  Instead, we took a family weekend to Ottawa, ON, our favourite Canadian city!  We stayed with some friends just south of Ottawa and enjoyed great food and our first Soduko puzzles-Not bad, I think we got a liking for them!

Ultimately, however, the weekend was to go and see Thomas and Friends Live On Stage.  G and I had looked into purchasing tickets for the show, but made the decision that Buddy was still too young to splurge the $100 for a family show when he probably wouldn't remember it much or even engage!  Another year, maybe next, was our final plan ... then some friends stepped in!

I came home from grocery shopping one day, and there was an MSN msg on my computer screen, an email and an old fashioned telephone msg.  My girlfriend had won a family pack of 4 tickets to the Ottawa show for Thomas.  What fun!  So ... that's where we were this weekend, enjoying Buddy and Thomas-LIVE!  Here are couple pix.  I'm looking forward to digiscrapping the event!  YEAH!

Waitin' for the show to start!

Completely mesmerized by the show as you can tell by the nacho dip still on the lips!
