The Polar Express with Grandpa & Grandma

My parents invited us over for a Polar Express themed dinner and movie.
When we got there the train conductor (Dad) was out in the fog of the train (fog machine) waving his lantern saying "All aboard!"

We walked up, handed him our tickets and "boarded the train."


We followed the train tracks to the North Pole where we had a yummy breakfast dinner of pocket watch pancakes, hot cocoa, and other goodies I can't remember the cute names of. We ate dinner and watched the Polar Express. Whenever we'd hear the Christmas bell ring in the movie we'd run in to the living room and hunt for the bell. Whoever found it got to hide it again and we had to wait to hear the bells ring again before going back to find it. The boys had fun, even though it was a simple game, they appreciated the fun that their grandparents were creating. Generally mom and dad invite a family with younger kids from their ward. This year they invited us to experience there fun night with them. 

At the end of the movie when Santa comes we heard real sleigh bells ringing. Down came Santa! 

He even snuck a kiss from mom. 😘 Then he passed out little gifts to everyone and took a seat on Jaime's lap! 😂 Such a fun evening. I'm grateful they wanted to share with us something they enjoying doing for other people.
