Polar Express Part 2 - The Train Ride to the North Pole!


After the sleighding we had dinner and then got ready to catch the Polar Express.  The kids were SOOO excited! We had a few minutes to take a few photos before boarding the train. Finally we were on our way.  We enjoyed cookies, hot chocolate and talking to the elves. When we arrived at the north pole we were surprised by a special visit with Mrs. Claus and then finally Santa Clause boarded the train.  He gave all of the kids a bell from his reindeer's harnesses. As we rode the train home we sang Christmas songs at the top of our lungs and heard a few Christmas jokes. After we got back the adults played some games while the kids watched "The Polar Express."  The next morning we went to the pool for a little swimming and then loaded up and headed home. Thanks again Mom and Dad! We had a GREAT time!
