Our ride on The Polar Express "was so awesome!" That's what Peyton said about it! LOL! :-) We listened to the story being read to us, then we started singing Christmas Songs! Kainaan and Peyton were in HEAVEN! They had a blast! When we arrived "at the North Pole" Santa and Mrs. Claus were standing outside waving to us! Then they came on the train and greeted each child and let us all take pictures! :-) After Santa and Mrs. Claus left our train, we were served chocolate milk and cookies! :-) Yummy! And then the Elves came and gave us the 1st gift of Christmas (a bell on a string) and A Polar Express Ornament! Then we had to wave goodbye to Santa and Mrs. Claus and go home... :-( BUT...it was so fun to see the boys' faces when the train pulled up and the Conductor yelled, "All Aboard!!" And then, when they met Santa...PRICELESS!!! :-)
PS-This story is cute...Brad and Lisa have been trying so hard to get Peyton to give up his Paci, so the deal was that he would give it to Santa. We all didn't know if he would do it, but HE DID!! :-) He gave it to him! YAY Peyt!! Unfortunately, Santa really took and didn't slip it back to Brad! LOL! But no fear...Lisa was prepared with back up! :-) That night at bedtime, he couldn't go without it...and told lisa, "no like ho ho" (AKA-He didn't like Santa!) So lisa gave him the backup paci...but what could she do?? She can't let him not like Santa!?!? Poor Lisa and Brad...they tried..and thought it was going to work...but it was a great idea and a great try! :-) Sorry guys that it didn't work...better luck in the future...atleast it not a thumb like Kainaan...how am I supposed to get rid of that!? LOL! :-)
OH! BTW...Mrs. Claus told Lisa that they have a collection of them at Santa's Workshop!! AHAHAHAAAA!!!! Sounds like many parents try to use that trick! :-)
