All Aboard....

On Sunday, Eric and I took Connor to The Polar Express exhibit in Grapevine. Connor was so excited about getting to ride on a real train. The weather wasn't the best, but we still had a blast. We got there and were immediately greeted by a Christmas Tree and Rudoloph. They were so gracious to take a picture. The whole Main Street was decorated with lights, villages, etc. We walked a little before heading to the depot. Connor got a bag of popcorn and hot chocolate. YUMMY! We met the Gross Family and off we went. They started us out in a tent with carols and the kids even got their own Polar Express ornament. After a few songs, they invited any kiddo to come up and sing. Well, Connor definitely does not have stage fright. He sang (yelled) Jiggle Bells. You can not help but to love this kid! After we all boarded the train, they began telling a story. To be honest we were all to busy talking and looking out the window to hear what story was being told. I am guessing... The Polar Express? Soon, we were greeted by none other than Santa himself. Connor was beyond excited to see him. As soon as we were back to the depot Eric bought Connor the largest corny dog I have ever seen. Connor chowed down!! Next, Connor and Macy got to make a reindeer ornament. Even though we were all freezing I have to say the kiddos enjoyed themselves. Sorry there are so many pictures.
