This year we were able to take the kiddos to the Polar Express train ride in Calera, AL. They were beside themselves excited! When the train showed up Olivia couldn't contain her excitement anymore. I think she must have squealed with glee for 5 minutes straight. Ford, on the other hand, was so deliriously sleepy that he couldn't see straight. They had so much fun that this will probably be an annual trip for us. It is just delightful to watch Christmas unfold through a young child's eyes. Priceless.
Wil Franklin, Ford and Olivia right before the train made it to the North Pole.
Santa's elves gave out cookies, chocolate milk and a keepsake ornament (and also agreed to pose for pictures when crazy parents asked them to).
Saint Nicholas and Mrs.Claus with Olivia and Ford. Olivia was tickled pink that Santa was in the train with her and Ford had his eye on Mrs.Claus.
Looking out at The North Pole.
Decent family photos just don't happen anymore. This is real life, people. Fun was being had by all.
What a great time! Can't wait to board the train next year for a trip to the North Pole.
