Every year the kids get new pj's for christmas. This year they got 2 pair- one for the train ride and one for christmas eve. Here they are sporting their new diggs:)



Here's the conductor coming through to punch their tickets.

Mrs. Clause handing out her cookie recipe.

Santa's elves were hard at work serving us hot chocolate and cookies.

This is Kaylee trying to hide from santa. The moment he stepped onto the train she freaked out. She's done this all the years before, so it really didn't surprise me. But last week at our ward christmas party she sat on his lap for the very first time (other than when she was a baby). So I thought she would be ok with seeing, guess I was wrong! Aaron stood up and she hide behind him. When santa got close aaron tried to move and Kaylee bit his butt! We were all laughing and aaron was a little shocked too:)

Bryce, on the other hand, couldn't wait to see Santa:) When Santa came onto the train he stood up and waved his hands trying to get Santa to see him and come listen to what he wanted. Bryce has been saying for sometime now that he wants a bike from Santa. We'll see if Santa delivers:)

Overall, it was a great trip and a fun outing for the kids. What made it even better was going with family and having a good time:)
