Polar Express

All aboard!!! :) My parents took us on the Polar Express this year in Heber City! My brother Mike and his family came along too. Here is the train. We were on the caboose:) Here we all are, ready to board! Minus Mom who was taking the picture:) It had started to snow and was very cold, but it seemed appropriate! The elves passed out cookies and hot chocolate and read the book 'Polar Express'. Then Santa boarded the train! (This is as good of a picture I could get) Santa gave each child a bell off his sleigh, just like in the book:) We sang Christmas carols and the children got to participate and ring the bells. They even roped all the men on the train into doing a song and it was funny to see Dad, Gene & Mike act out their part!! Mrs. Clause also boarded the train and handed out recipes and spoke to all the children! It was a fun experience (besides the 1-dimensional woman HA!) and Camrynn loved it!!!

Sounds like so much fun. Love the movie, i'd probably love the ride, too! And, what about a 1-dimentional woman???? :)

The 1 dimentional woman thought she owned the train:) They would ask everybody to be seated and she didn't think it applied to her! And she was walking the aisles the whole time!! Arg... There's more, but you get the idea! haha
