Little Boy Heaven On Rails

It’s the ULTIMATE train set. I’m not exaggerating. That’s really what it’s called

It is the BIGGEST single set of Thomas and Friends sold… and bona fide little boy crack.

I found it on Super Special Secret Sale while living in London and was so excited to snatch it up for Scout’s Christmas gift…

Then we found out we’d be moving back to the States…. two weeks after Christmas… and the train set, along with everything else we owned, would have to be sent home by slow-moving container ship.

How cruel and unusual would it be to give this awesomeness to a train-obsessed child only to take it away for an uncertain amount of time?

Very.

So we held off until his birthday in April… except our shipment didn’t arrive in time for his birthday. It came in time for MY birthday… in June. (Yes, that is a ridiculous amount of time to be held up in U.S. customs… )

I guess my birthday was all about him after all

  2. Not to be repetitive, but that IS an awesome train set. We had a much, much smaller version but we were only able to keep it up for a short time because we didn’t/don’t have the room.
