We all went to Lubbock this past weekend to ride the Polar Express! It was just like the movie...down to the hot chocolate! We made one, no two, mistakes. One...we bought Jake the train souvenir BEFORE the train ride. Therefore, when we got onto the train he was so busy and happy playing with his train that he looked at me and said "Why are we on this thing?" I think he would have been happy driving back to Midland after we bought the train to be honest. Mistake number 2...we put Marshall in his Christmas pajamas to match Jake. I was all excited that they looked so cute like the little boy on the movie. However, after smelling an awful smell as we held Marshall on the train (after the 2 hr card ride), we noticed that we had neglected to wash the shirt from last week when he had the sickies and explosive diapers! EWWW! We thought we had washed it, but I guess we got the clean pile mixed up with the dirty one??? Anyway, we had to remove the shirt and put on his fleece. Oh well. He still looked adorable!
Jake was NOT happy about seeing Santa, so hid under the table when Santa and the elves came on the train. Marshall was carefully optimistic though. He also had Dance Party 2010 on the train. This kid has some serious groove in him.
All in all, it was (to me) and perfect day...happy kids, happy Mommy, happy Daddy and a magical train ride!
