Polar Express



We had such a great time at the Polar Express in Lubbock. Jaxon's love for trains is undeniable so going on a real train for the first time was a blast.  Mimi and Papa came along too which made the experience even more fun.  I have to say that it was totally worth the ticket price when we saw the kids faces as santa and his elves came on board.  Santa was so sweet and he came right up to Jaxon and spoke to him in such a sweet way. He got down on his knee on Jaxon's level and whispered to him, "Do you believe?" and handed him a bell. If you haven't read the book or seen the movie, if you believe in Santa, you can hear the bell ring.  I couldn't help but get tears in my eyes.  It was beyond sweet. I absolutely love watching Jaxon learn about the magic and joy of Christmas.  Adalyn had a great time too and didn't scream when Santa spoke to her, so we considered that a success!  


So glad that Mimi and Papa were there.
