The Polar Express

The Saturday after Thanksgiving we journeyed to Calera to ride the Polar Express.

This is one of my favorite things to do at Christmas. The Polar Express is a

wonderful children's book and movie. If you have never seen the movie, hurry

to your local Blockbuster and rent it today!!

We left AK in Peterman with Bebe and Pawpaw Bo. I know she had a great time

shopping and watching more Elmo than anyone can stand!! Thank you to Bebe

and Pawpaw for keeping her for the day. We hope she will make the trip with us

next year.

We stopped by Uncle Lee's on the way and forgot they had a cat. Nick is highly

allergic so, we had to give him some benadryl. He looks a little out of it in some of

the pictures.

Let's get this train moving!!

Sentimental shot for me.

Where is that Santa??

Not really sure about this. Santa had to work really hard for that smile.

There it is!!

He got his own bell. The story is all about the bell.

We all got milk and cookies and Nick got an ornament for the tree.

It was a fun time and I can't wait to do it again next year!!

I think I enjoy it more than Nick does!!
