The Polar Express

On Monday night, Mike's Parents took us to Hood River to ride the Polar Express. It was snowing like i've never seen before adding to the magic of it all. This was the kid's first time on a train, first ride to the "North Pole" to pick up Santa himself. Ty was the only one to actually sit on Santa's lap and tell him what he wants for Christmas. A Seahawks helmet. Good times.

Just so everyone knows, I was trying to get Piper to smile and say "Cheese"...instead I came off looking like a "Special" kid who rode the short bus to school.

CRAP!

Shannon, I am glad you shared the pic's of your trip. I am taking Kaeden next Friday. Was the train cold inside? We can't wait to go. I have Kaeden's new pj's ready.
My parents live in White Salmon, so we get to stay all night Friday after the train ride & not have to drive back to Hermiston late.

Yes, Vicki the train was very cold! You'll want to bundle up!
