North Pole Express

One of the highlights of the trip to Mema and Pepa's for Thanksgiving was the trip we took to Grapevine to ride the North Pole Express.  It was a cool little train ride on the Grapvine Historic Railway.  It was my first time to ever ride on a train and the girls too.  It was really cool, they had a little play before hand, then on the train they sang songs and gave the girls' a gift, and after we returned we got to make Christmas ornaments.  It was a pretty cool little deal.

 



 

 

 

We all enjoyed the Christmas carols in the show.

 

 

 

Ready to ride!!!!

 

 

 

We all made it onto the train safely.

 

Mema and Pepa were ready!

 

 

Annette was entranced by the rocking of the rails.

 

Carolyn was very excited too.

 

The girls each got a little bell from the train Santa.

Annette loved it.

 

Those bells sure can jingle.

 

And jingle.....

 

And jingle.

Mommy helped Carolyn ring hers.

 



 

Silly Carolyn and Mommy.

 

 



 

The girls found a frosty to pose with,



 

and then they posed with a giant ornament!

 



 

Annette wouldn't pose with Mommy and Daddy though.

 

She finally came around and we all had a good time.
