All Aboard!

We are currently headed home from a very long adventure where we got to ride on the Polar Express Train & see Santa! We decided that we would make the drive to Chattanooga to surprise Graysen with a ride on the Polar Express Train. He has been watching the movie all week & got new PJs right before we left the house. He didn't have a clue until we arrived at the train depot. Once we told him he was soooo excited!

Headed to Chattanooga

Waiting to board the Polar Express Train...we waited a LONG time in the cold!

Finally made it on the train & now MORE waiting!

Ashley & I were excited...can't you tell...LOL

Sooooo excited!

Graysen & Mommy want the train to start moving!

Here we go!

We got special cookies made by Santa's Elves!

Cookies & Yoohoo....yum!

We went all the way to the North Pole & Santa got on the train to ride back with us!

Graysen got to tell Santa that he wants a Transformer & Spiderman for Christmas

He had his eye on the Conductor the whole time...he loves it when the Conductor says "All Aboard" in the movie. He got his ticket punched with a star & there was a bell attached from Santa's sleigh!

We did have a great time, but it was a long adventure that a wild 3yr old was not willing to be patient for. He did his best. They also had many of Santa's helpers on the train that sung Christmas songs & read the Polar Express story. Maybe we will do this again in a couple years when he has a little...okay a LOT more patience!

Blessings,

Tracey

I am the blessed mother of these 4 punks. I am married to an amazingly patient husband that I am sure wants to run for the nearest woods most days, but sticks it out in the trenches with me. Join me on the journey of raisin' these punks!
