The Polar Express

Tonight we were able to take the kids on a ride on the Polar Express. This was absolutely awesome. The boys had a blast. Thank you Nanny! As the train started off it played music from the polar express and took us on a tour of beautiful lights and those huge christmas snow globes. Then we stopped at "the north pole" and got off the train. Where we were able to visit Santa and sit on his lap. Luke asked for a train and Noah said "he's good and doesn't really need anything." WHAT? After Santa saw all the kids on our train, he talks about the meaning of the candycane and what the first true gift of Christmas is. Then we boarded the train again and finished the ride listening to soft christmas music and traveling past pictures of Christ throughout his life. Totally Awesome! After our ride was over we got to go back to Nannys for Hot.....Hot......Hot chocwat and cookies. Thank you Nanny and Poppy we had a blast.

Yea for updates!!! I love your pics. I'm glad you had fun at the Polar Express. I guess I was a humbug since we didn't bring Michael. I just figured he wouldn't remember it and had too much going on. As soon as finals are over for Steve and I can make it through one more week of teaching we'll be able to relax. What a darling thing though. Maybe we'll come next year.
