Post OVERLOAD, keep scrolling down there's LOTS!
We had SOOO much fun going to the North Pole on the Polar Express. The kids had no idea until that morning. They thought they were going to school until we read the Polar Express and gave them Jammie's to wear on the train. Oh, the EXCITEMENT!!! They could hardly stand it. They wanted to get in the car right then and there. We drove up through Sedona to see the fall leaves and stopped at the Grand Canyon before. We met the Goates at the train station before boarding. There's no one we would of rather gone with then them. We sure love them GOATES!
We took the kids to the Polar Express in Utah when Easton and Maycee were just tiny, so this time they were older and understood what was going on. It was so magical. Every part about it. The hot coco, and warm cookies made by Mrs. Claus. To the caroling and the North Pole. To Santa's visit on the train. To receiving a bell from Santa himself. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Christmas. So glad we made the 3 hour trek up north even though we had school and work the next day. It was worth every penny and every tired kiddo!

What fun pictures. I love your cute white hat. I have one so similar we could be matchies. The Polar Express looks so cool. Christopher is getting baptized on Saturday, I can't believe it. Easton looks so big. What, when did this all happen?
