Last weekend the boys were invited to a friend’s 4yr old birthday party. They were simply thrilled at the party venue as the theme was on Thomas The Train.  From the start to the end of the party Ryan was parked on the playmat in the centre of the room busily playing with the trainset that was set up there. The only time he left the mat was for cake cutting and singing happy birthday to the birthday boy. Talk about the Thomas and the law of attraction.

Roy on the other hand was alternating between the playmat and the buffet table checking out all the delicious homemade dishes that the host’s grandma cooked.

Roy took part in some of the games conducted  at the party

- Pin the circle on Thomas ( adapted from pin the tail onto the donkey)

- Getting a peel on tattoo

- pulling of the Thomas pinata

I did try to entice Ryan to participate in the games but his response for every single one is ” No thank you, not interested” with his attention firmly on the train set.  He did have a request though, he wanted a Thomas the Train cake on top of his previous request for a Diego and Lightning McQueen cake for his next birthday. It will be quite a tall order to fulfill.

Maybe I should make  a cake with Diego sitting in Lightning McQueen with Thomas chugging along at the side? What do you think of this idea?
