Polar Express


















We went to Williams Arizona to ride on the Polar Express. The kids had so much fun (and so did the parents). We went with some friends, and it is definately going to be a family tradition every year now. We were served hot chocolate and cookies, and they read the Polar Express book to us as the train took us to the North Pole. Once we were there, we saw Santa in his sleigh, with his reindeer, and his elves. The kids all had their noses pressed against the windows, and were freaking out to see Santa! When it was time to go back, we got to pass the North Pole once more, but this time Santa was gone. Then, all of the sudden, Santa was on the train with us!! He came and said hello to all the kids, and gave them each a bell. The rest of the ride back, everyone was singing Christmas carols. Cade was the first kid to volunteer to go up and lead everyone in singing Rudolph.

How fun! I love that idea! Stacy, you look great! I love your hair dark, it looks really cute! How'd you get there, btw? Is your yukon fixed, or are you driving the mitchell's expedition?
I think that would be such a fun experience for my kids, too. I think we'll have to go sometime!

Oh, how fun! I've always wanted to do that. They have one in Oregon, but I found out about it too late this year!!

What a great memory!
