sunday night we went to the polar express with pop and nana and aunt casey! it has, for two years now, been one of avery's favorite movies and i knew she would love it. we've known since thanksgiving that we were going but we kept it a secret until saturday. she was crazy excited and apparently very serious about the ride as she asked if the kids from the movie would be there.
so off we went on the polar express, complete with our pjs and polar temperatures. they apparently thought it enhanced the experience to make you wait (outside) until the last minute to board. we were all freezing!!!
once on board we got to listen to the story, see the elves, drink chocolate milk and eat cookies AND they got a bell and a keepsake ornament. super fun for all. the icing on the cake for avery was that two of her best friends were along for the ride ~ sophie and ellie! you'll see in the pictures that friends always make it more fun!
thank you pop and nana for an unforgettable christmas experience! we love you!
addison and pop peeking out the window
we couldn't get a family picture with addison...she was far too busy
avery was so excited to meet mrs claus...and see santa again
addison saw santa too.....and her feelings weren't quite the same
but we did manage to get a picture
she did, however, love the bell...
and to no ones surprise...the chocolate milk
the elf
aren't these three friends so sweet??
such sweet friends!
