Last night we went to Heber to ride the Polar Express. We all loved it! We went with my parents, little brother and my sister's family.
First we ate dinner at the Dairy Keen. It is the cutest little hamburger restaurant and the food was really tasty.
We headed over to the train station a little bit earlier because we wanted to make sure we were all sitting together on the train.
We had about a half an hour wait in the cold. Brrr! It was freezing. I didn't bring a coat. Justin was extra smart and brought hand warmers. He is the thinker of the family. We finally got to board the train and we were all together! Good thing since we were first in line for our coach.
We got to enjoy hot chocolate and cookies on the train ride. Our hostess, Rudy the reindeer, was hilarious. We learned how to do the reindeer cheer and how to give reindeer kisses.
Rudy helped the kids make magic snowballs. Bella thought that was really fun!
We sang Christmas carols and Bella even fell in love..
His name is Sunshine and it just so happens that he is an elf. A real elf! ;) Bella thinks she loves him. He was nice enough to take a picture with her.
The girls all danced in the aisle while waiting for the train to switch directions.
Finally Santa boarded the train and gave all the kids a jingle bell. Bella LOVES Santa!
I love spending time with all of the family. This one definitely one of the bests nights I can remember. My mom bought us all matching ornaments for our tree. I'm glad it has the year on it since we plan on doing this every year and will have to buy a new ornament each time! Definitely our new family tradition!
