The Polar Express

Today we headed to take a train ride to see Santa's Workshop via the Polar Express! This was probably the most fun we have had all season...And that is saying A LOT!

This boy saw his first real life train...He was mesmerized & completely consumed with the want to explore! He was NOT OKAY with being contained/held...

 SOOO excited to board the train.

 

Finally on our way!!!

 Santa & Mrs. Claus!!!

 Miss Blakely didn't want in the pictures, but did tell Mrs. Claus that she wants a Minnie Mouse. Mrs. Claus told her that some were already loaded on the sleigh ready to be delivered....Blakely was SO excited she started clapping

 Enjoying her cookie!

 Sad to leave the North Pole!

Zoolight Safari

Friday night we had our new friends Kira & Oliver and their three lovely kiddos Elizabeth, Charlie and Lolly over for Pizza! Blakely was in Heaven!!! We had quite a blast too! Love this family!

Parkey brushed his teeth...The. Whole. Night. In fear of his ear deafening screaming, I chose not to fight that battle...

 We rode the train!

Such an amazing night!
