The Polar Express

We finally made it to the Polar Express. This trip was long awaited (we made the reservations in March) and much anticipated since we went for the first time 2 years ago. We couldn't have asked for better weather, big fluffy flakes of snow falling continuously, covering everything with a crisp clean winter blanket.

Here is the whole gang...Diego, Zoe, Logan, Caden, Ally, Mitch and Vinny. It was a complete (and fun) coincidence that all the boys ended up in the same PJs.

On the way to the North Pole, Kelly read the story to the kids.

Our Chef for our ride was Mimi. She took great care of us. She passed out the yummiest hot cocoa "Like melted chocolate bars" with chocolate chip cookies.

When we arrived at the North Pole, Santa hopped aboard the train and passed out a bell from his sleigh to each boy and girl. Even Caden.

And on our train ride back, Mimi lead us in Christmas Carols. Logan even volunteered to sing Jolly Ol' St. Nicolas to the entire train car. I'll post the video when I figure out how...hint to Shawn :) Sadly, this is the only pic I got of the outside of the train... you get the idea, right? It was a magical time and a wonderful way to celebrate the Christmas season.
