Christmas Train

After seeing the ballet we went to see the Christmas train that was coming through Monroe.  Since we were a bit early I took some shots of the girls with town decorations.



They were making fun of me as I kept getting excited about decorations and wanting them to pose, so they decided this weed coming up through the grate was worthy as well.


We stood in line for a while and had to entertain ourselves some way until our friends got there.


Pictures with an elf.  This elf was super shocked when we asked for a picture with her since we were just about to Santa—but what a cute elf!!  It was so much fun to see this through our friends eyes (especially little S as she is just so darn cute to begin with).  My girls are getting a bit older and were not nearly as in to it as little S and D  :)

Clara was carrying her around—isn’t that so sweet!  We go to house church with this family and Clara carries her around everywhere  :)

Hi Santa!

Getting ready to go into the train.  We got to go through about 4 cars and I didn’t get any pictures inside but it was really awesome!  They had train sets inside and it was cool being in a train looking at a train…  wow man, blowing my mind  LOL! 

The kids made fun of me as we were waiting in line because they were not as into seeing this train (I mean really??!!).  Afterwards though they were glad we went as it really was awesome.  I kept saying to them “just wait, this may be the best Christmas memory ever!!”  I told our friends that too, and so we now all refer to this as the best memory ever!  Oh yeah!!
