Now that everyone is recovered from the Sparkle Parade blog entry from a few days ago (I know, I know, the Moose Queen is a little disturbing), I finally got around to downloading my pictures from the rest of our weekend up in Maine. The next morning the girls got up bright and early to hit the outlets and the guys took the kids to breakfast with Santa at our hotel where they had a cookie decorating station, ornament decorating, pictures with Santa...couldn't have been more convenient! That night we went on the Polar Express out of Portland where we had first class tickets and an entire train caboose reserved just for us! They reenacted the movie as we rode to the North Pole to pick up Santa. Kids wore their pjs and we made a stop along the way while the chefs delivered hot chocolate and cookies (song and all). It was super cute, we sang carols and had so much fun, can't wait to do it again when Leighton is older and can join us. To top off the weekend our hotel also had a pool and the kids really enjoyed that and I liked the hot tub and the bar where Nicole and I snuck off to when the kids fell asleep. It even snowed...ah...love Maine and this time of year!!!
Brayden some how wasn't afraid of this Santa and even posed for a picture...shocking to all.
This was our Elf who helped tell the story and make our ride fun!
The kids and the Conductor...notice the kids have golden tickets!We lost these a few times on the train ride...just like the movie...hehe.
All Colton wanted was the bell from Santa's sleigh...thank goodness he got it!
I think all this Christmas stuff wore him out pretty good...what do you think?!?!
