Look at that snow bunny!! Soooo cute!
You can tell by this picture that Ellie KNOWS that Lou Lou is the one who bought this getup.
We loaded up the minivan and headed up north to catch the Polar Express! Grandma, Linde, Papa and Lou Lou came too.
We did a little exploring all around the train station when we got there.
There were lights to look at.
Animals to see.
Then, of course there were trains.
We found Mrs. Clause in a room at the station, seeing visitors.
The boys colored a picture for Santa...
...and put it in his mailbox.
We ate some dinner, then got ready to board the train.
We had great seats, right across the aisle from each other.
The ride to the North Pole began and the staff sang and danced while the handed out hot chocolate and cookies and read the book to us.
The Polar Express is a magic train, so we arrived at the North Pole in no time.
We looked out the window and there were lights everywhere and Santa was there with a HUGE bag of presents. Getting all ready for Christmas Eve.
We sang some more songs while we waited for Santa to get to our train car.
Finally, Santa came to our train car and gave all the kids a bell. It was very magical. The boys couldn't have been happier. Nate said, "Nakes (thanks) Santa". Wesley grinned from ear to ear.
Santa even gave Ellie a bell and told her that they would get to know each other very soon.
The next morning, we had breakfast at the station restaurant and got ready to head home.
The whole trip was a really great time and everyone enjoyed themselves.
Daddy was even smart enough to remember that we were right next to the REAL Route 66, just like in Cars, and we stopped to get a picture.
