All Aboard the Polar Express

We took the kids to the mall today to see Santa's grand entrance. They were giving out "train tickets" to the first 200 kids in line to redeem for a "special gift". We were numbers 24 and 25 :) And we only had to wait in line for an hour ;)












Then, we got complimentary cookies and hot cocoa and settled in to watch a preview of The Polar Express. It was performed by a very talented local performing arts studio. It was really cute...the kids were in a trance ;)





































Next, we headed up to "Santa's house" in the mall to wait in line for another hour for pictures and our "special gift"...which turned out to be much better than I expected!!! A complete Polar Express set with the book, CD, and cassette, and the special bell! Just like the one I have...so now they each have their own copy!
