The Polar Express 2010.....

We had the opportunity to go on the Polar Express ride in Lindon last Monday night. Sharon (Gwen's daughter) invited us. She had us over for biscuits and gravy (or jam) first. They have a family in their ward that's rigged a mini train all throughout their property. It's pretty dang amazing.

Max and Ru waiting for the ride to start.

All the gang (except Sharon).

The first stop was Santa's workshop where the girls got to tell Santa their most wanted presents this holiday season. Maddy said "books". Maddy wouldn't go sit on Santa's lap unless Ruby went with her.

After the workshop part they took us around the track where they has set up scenes from Jesus' life (like the manger scene and business like that) with all of Greg Olsen's paintings set up and pretty music playing. It was VERY cry baby emotional. And not just for me and my "just had a baby" hormones, other people cried too. I swear, it wasn't just me.

The family (minus Daisy) after the ride. Yes, I like making Maddy's arms do that.

The family (minus Daisy still) with Sharon's camera.

Sharon and Madds. She's such an awesome lady. We just love her...even if she didn't make me rolls and jam.

The view from the train.

Ru and Santa. She asked for a jewelry kit but forgot that instead she wanted a makeup kit. Too bad Santa doesn't love those things.

Grandma and Grandpa Smith came to Sharon and Clark's for dinner too. Then they watched Daisy so the rest of us could go on the train ride. I think Grandma Smith only came for the baby time.

We're waiting....we're waiting....

The end.
