American Girl Doll Store & Thomas the Train Trip

The reservations are set. Mercy & I will be traveling to Chicago on April 10th to go to the American Girl Doll Store in Chicago. This will be her birthday present from grandma. She is very excited. She does not have a doll yet. We will get her one when we go there. It will be a very expensive birthday. She will be 5 on April 7th.

On June 19th, Little JT's 4th birthday, I have purchased tickets to the Thomas the Train show in Connersville, Indiana. We will leave in the morning on the 19th, go to our hotel, let the kids swim and then on Saturday we will go to the Whitewater Valley Railroad Museum. We will have a total of 14 of us going. My cousin Dianne is taking her son and 2 girls from work are taking their kids. Dianne took Nick last year and he loved it, and wanted to go again this year. They have an actual real train painted like Thomas that we can ride on. The conductor is dressed as Sir Toppin Hat. The show is only there for 2 weeks.
