THE POLAR EXPRESS!!! Mommie took us on the Polar Express on December, 18th. Emily was so excited about riding a train. She clapped and said train all the way to the depot. Then when she actually saw the size of the train she was a little scared, but when we boarded the train she was just fine. We were on the top deck, which was really neat! They served hot chocolate and cookies on the over to the North Pole and read the story of The Polar Express. Then on the way back Santa talked to each kid individually and we sang Christmas songs. We all had such fun. The train rocked back and forth the whole ride, so I am glad Shelby did not attend since he is very sensitive to motion sickness. Santa also gave each kid a bell and the Conductor punched each kids ticket, just like the movie but he did not do the fancy words like the movie. I can hardly wait to go next year. Kaitlynn also liked it so much she fell asleep. Actually, I think the rocking motion made her fall asleep. Santa wanted to make sure and get a picture with Kaitlynn also. I know next year both of the girls will really enjoy it. One of the best parts was that we all dressed in our P.J.'s!! This was by far one of our favorite activities this Christmas season!!!

Looks like such fun! We will definitely have to try it out next year!
We had such fun doing this and I am so glad we were able to ride the Polar Express! Kaitlynn slept through most of it but Emily was so excited the whole time! I'll never forget the look of excitement as she peeked around the seat to get a glance of Santa as he came down the aisle. She danced in the aisles and on the seat to "Hot Chocolate" too. Love you all so much!
