Polar Express

My parents took our entire family (minus Chad and his wife, who had to work) on the polar express for an early Christmas present.  That means there were 14 adults and 17 grandkids, quite a group.  It was so much fun, even Ember, who had been terribly sick, enjoyed herself.  My kids are very familiar with the movie and book so, they were soo excited to climb ABOARD!

The more the merrier, right? From left to right: Zack, Aidan, Kaden, Ember and Brock

Ember is clutching the bell that Santa gave her.

Aidan admiring his bell (which he promptly lost and then later found again).

Even Eden liked her bell.

Oh, Tony, what a poop!

Ember chatting with one of the elves.  While Aidan can't keep his eyes off the tracks.

The kids with the conductor.

Showing off the tickets after they got punched!  Which Aidan also lost and then later found.

And of course, Santa Clause!!
