Yesterday, we rode the Polar Express! We loaded up early in the morning and headed to Flagstaff to get on a train to the North Pole ;). The kids were pretty good in the car but were so tired, hungry, and restless towards the end! YAY for Buffalo Wild Wings! We grabbed some lunch and watched the Tech game before heading to the hotel!
Ainsley had to have one of these hats!
Then, we headed to the hotel...in hopes of these kids taking nap....hmmm....that didn't happen until about 30 minutes before it was time for us to leave!
OUT! Yep...mommy took a little nap too! I am so old...still worn out from shopping black friday! LOL
All ready in our jammies about to leave the hotel! We all had matching jammies...Mama bear, Papa bear, and Little bears! Evan got to wear super cool Lightening McQueen Slippers!
All bundled up! Waiting for the train! WE LOVED getting away to the cold!
The train!
ALL ABOARD!
Waiting for the train to leave!
Going through the time warp tunnel!
Reading the story :)
On our way to the North Pole!
OF COURSE she wanted to try it! 
Group shot!
Love you Ains!
Getting our tickets ready for the conductor!
WE ARE HERE! The NORTH POLE! We saw Santa, Mrs. Claus, Reindeer, the Toy factory, Santa's house, elves, and Twinkle Berry Trees!
And Santa came on the train to give each child a special present! A bell of their very own!
LOVE their bells!
Then, it was time to head back to the station! Lots of singing and aisle dancing on the way back! Mims...do you have a pic of that?
We picked up some late night dinner and headed back to the hotel. We were all cracking up because Evan talks himself to sleep everynight but since we were all in the same room last night while he was going to sleep...it was hilarious to hear what he was saying! "Tri-ceratops, T Rex, diploducous, all those guys" "Mommy sleeping, daddy sleeping, MJ sleeps, Mims sleeping...I tired, goonight (then he would fake snore)" He must have done this sequence like 20 times before finally falling asleep LOL. Oh and Ainsley, doesn't do hotels. (period)
We had such a great time on our litttle adventure! What a great start to this holiday season!
