The Polar Express Experience

To kick off the Christmas season we took a trip to Williams, Arizona to ride the Polar Express where Collin got to meet Santa for the first time.

Once we boarded the conductor came by and punched our tickets.

The chefs showed us pictures to the storybook while Liam Neeson read the book over the speakers. They distributed hot coacoa and fresh cookies...and Collin loved having some.
When we reached the North Pole we saw Santa's Village and Santa in
his sleigh getting ready for his big flight.

To our surprise, Santa paid us a visit on the ride back to the station
and he gave each child a jingle bell just like on the movie.

We spent the night with family in Flagstaff (thanks Shelley & Michael!) and
then headed out in the morning. Before exiting the city we were able to enjoy a
little snowfall and Collin felt snow for the first time.
