Our Trip to the North Pole

Judi and Bill were incredibly awesome and bought us tickets to ride the Polar Express in Heber. We got the tickets for a night when they would be able to join us when they came out for Christmas. Unfortunately, while Nana and Gramps were on vacation, Nana broke her ankle in two places and needed surgery. We're so sad they couldn't come out to be with us on Christmas! We can't wait to see them at the soonest possible opportunity.

Jessica and Noah were able to come with us on the train. We stopped to eat on the way there to get something to eat at Chicks in Heber and headed on to the train station. When we were on, we were greeted by chefs and elves! We all read the story The Polar Express (a first for Jeff), drank hot chocolate and ate magic cookies which happen to be Santa's favorite. We all sang Christmas songs and listened to jokes too. Aidan loved the giggle elves (the elf giggles - long story) and they all got to meet Santa at the North Pole!

It was a lot of fun and I'm so glad we were able to go. We missed Nana and Gramps though, but we thought about them the whole time.

Merry Christmas!
