Polar Express 2009

Journey to the North Pole to see Santa
Grand Canyon Railway - Williams, Arizona

The family all dressed in our Santa shirts and flannel pajama pants, waiting to board The Polar Express!

Some of the cousins with Santa's wife, Mrs. Claus

The kids took the time to each write a letter to Santa.

The Fryer 5ive.

We went outside to board the train and it started to snow on us, it was magical!

It's snowing, it's snowing! The kids are only used to dust and rain storms, and not this white stuff they call snow. The snowfall was a first for Keira and a second for Cayden and Carson:-)

My sister, MacKenzie, and I catching snowflakes on our tongues!

We brought our Polar Express book to follow along with the story on the train!

All aboard! Cayden and Taylor.

Keira and Karlie so excited to be on the Polar Express!

Polar Express passengers in need of refreshments! Cookies..............

Hot! Hot! Oh, we got it! Hot! Hot! So, we got it! Hot! Hot! Yo, we got it! Hot chocolate! They played the Hot Chocolate song from the movie as they passed out the hot chocolate! I couldn't get the song out of my head!

Having fun on our journey to the North Pole!

Carson fell asleep for a short time while listening to the magical story!

It was so neat to watch the excitement on the kid's faces when the train arrived at the North Pole, where Santa Claus, his elves and reindeer were outside waiving to us!

Santa boarded the Polar Express and gave each child a special gift! Keira and Karlie were so excited to see Santa.

I love this picture of Santa and Carson having a conversation!

Even Cayden and Taylor got excited to see Santa!

You're never too old to BELIEVE!

Our journey aboard the Polar Express train to the North Pole was magical! It was awesome to experience the real life version of the children's movie and classic book. This is definitely something our little family would love to make a holiday tradition!

Merry Christmas to all our family and friends!
