We are so lucky to live in a National Park (as I've said over and over) to enjoy all the the fun events they offer! Another fun year on the Polar Express. This year, we decided to take Bella with us. The magic never ends on this train ride!
When we boarded the train we were instantly greeted by Elf Flashy (yes, that's what she said her name was). She told us her job at the North Pole was a toy maker. Dawson told her she wanted an American Girl doll and Elf Flashy said she would be the one that would make that doll! On Christmas morning when Dawson opened that doll, she instantly said….Elf Flashy made this doll! That made me laugh out loud!
One of my favorite parts of the train ride is the reading of the "Polar Express" book. It always catches the attention of both the adults and children.
She's looking out the window in search of the North Pole!
Dawson was answering the question of the names of all the reindeers. I was shocked she raised her hand!
The North Pole was fantastic! We had snow the night before so it was perfect!
Santa made a quick move when Dawson wasn't looking and sat down. I caught a quick picture! This lasted about one second and she was out of her seat away from that big guy in red! Still not a fan of him!
On our way back from the North Pole, it was time to sing some carols and ring our bells. We were singing "Jingle Bells".
We were day 11 in the "Twelve Days of Christmas" song.
On our way home, a few tired girls crashed. (or pretended to be asleep as I found out later).
