*Santa Express*

When we woke up on Sunday we got a little present from Charlie, our elf.  It was 4 tickets to the Santa Express.  The kids had no idea what it was for, so after church we headed to Boise for some fun.  We put the address into our GPS and was surprised when we saw we were going on a train ride.  Our name was on a table and to our surprise Santa and Mrs. Claus was there to meet us all.  They went around to each table and asked every child what they wanted for Christmas.  We had so much fun riding the train and it even took us to Santa's Village where we got out, had candy canes, and put carrots on the trees for the reindeers.  After the ride we let the kids get their own train whistle and went out to dinner as a family.  It was such a special day and one I hope they never forget.
