The Polar Express

My parents took our three oldest children on a ride on the Polar Express, aka the Heber Valley Creeper. They had so much fun it was all they talked about the next day. They all got dressed up and wore their PJ's, under their coats and boots of course.


Mrs. Clause was there also because she ran out of sugar. She makes all the goodies you know. The secret ingredient in the cookies is . . . an elf's giggle.


They got to sing songs and visit and just have a lot of fun together. The kids talked alot about the Elves.
These are a couple of the Elves helping out on the train. Sparkle and Lolly Pop. Sparkle was their favorite, she's got her arm around Isaac.

My favorite part of the whole thing was the shopping time Dennis and I had while they were gone. They left at around 5:30 pm and didn't get back until after 10pm. (In fact they beat us home by 15 minutes. The children were all in bed at that time and Jacob yelled a good night to us when we got home. What a busy night!

Thanks Grandma & Grandpa!! What fun memories!
