Our Trip to the NoRTh pOLe!!

Every year Brady's Mom has a big Christmas party with the whole family and this year she decided to take us on THE POLAR EXPRESS. So after lunch and opening a few presents we traveled up to Heber to get on the Heber Creeper! Once on the train we settled in and sang a few Christmas carols, read the Polar Express, had cookies and Hot Chocolate and waited for Santa.
We first had a visit from Mrs. Claus, Ellie loved her and gave her big hugs and kisses. Then we finally reached the North Pole where Santa boarded the train. It was a little sad that there was NO SNOW, maybe next time!By the time Santa got to our car Ellie wanted NOTHING to do with him. She cried and wouldn't even look his direction. Overall, we had tons of fun and can't wait to take Ellie back when she knows a little more about The Polar Express.

Looks like you guys had a great Thanksgiving/trip. It's always nice when you like your inlaws so the years you're not with your family can still be fun.

I'm jealous you went on the Polar Express...I've always wanted to do that! I didn't know you hit some stores on Black Friday, sounds like it was crazy! I sent Trav to Walmart at 6 a.m. to get his own Christmas present. Nice huh? Hope you have a great time in Disneyland!

That is an awesome idea - I love that! It must be a little kid thing to NOT like Santa - Jonah was the same way as Ellie.
