North Pole Express!

This was a really fun trip that we took with some of our friends. The train left from Horseshoe Bend and traveled north to Banks. When we got to Banks we got off the train and were at the "North Pole". Here we got to visit Santa and play in the village. It was a perfect day for it...snowing. :0 This year Chloe would not sit on Santa's lap without us very close by.

On the train....there were carolers who came around and sang Christmas carols to us...fun!

Wow!! This is cool!! Chloe loved the train ride!! Maybe we will make this an annual tradition!

Good Times!!

Karen came to visit during the holidays....so good to see her!!
