The Polar Express

On Saturday Dad treated us all to a wonderful trip on the Copper King Express' Christmas train ride, which the kids called "The Polar Express." It actually was once referred to as the Polar Express before they got busted for copyright infringement and had to change the name to "The North Pole Express," but, that is another story as told by one of the "elves." We all had a great time and really enjoyed the train ride. Ryan, Dad and Gavin enjoying some very manly conversation before we deparated from the station. Ryan is Kendall's boyfriend.
Mom, me, Kendall and Bella (representing three generations) pose above. Bella spent most of the trainride protected from the Grinch between her Grandma and her Auntie.

Max and Bella were more than happy to give Santa a big hug, while Brighton sang Jingle Bells with glee below. She screams "hey" at the top of her lungs everytime the song gets to "laughing all the way. " It is rather adorable, and here she is throwing her arm in the air to scream "hey" while the whole train sang. The Grinch jumped on the train in Fairmont and stole our packages. Santa was able to get them back, however, much to everyone's relief.
