I don’t even know where to begin with the Christmas posts! We were in Oregon for a week and a half and crammed so much fun into those ten days, it’s going to take awhile to get through it! We were absolutely spoiled by my parents and each other, and had such a wonderful time together. We don’t live by many cousins, so it was fun for them to all be together and get to know each other!
My parents kicked off the Christmas festivities with the maiden ride of the first Polar Express! Each kid was able to earn tickets throughout December so that they could spend them at the Polar Express store at Christmas. My dad dressed up as the conductor, each kid got a golden Polar Express ticket punched, my mom passed out Santa hats, and they took a (very carefully monitored) ride in a decorated trailer pulled by the four wheeler.
Once the kiddos got back to the house, my parents had a Polar Express store set up, a Christmas tree with their bell necklaces on it, gifts, and sugar cookies and hot chocolate. (There may have been some dancing mommies serving the cocoa during the hot chocolate song!)
After watching some of the movie and enjoying the treats, there was a present for each grandlittle to open: tablets! Yeah, totally spoiled! What an awesome gift!
And as if that wasn’t enough, next it was time for some shopping at the Polar Express store, which was stocked with boy and girl goodies alike!
I don’t know how my parents are ever going to top this one; it’s going to go down in the books as one of the best Christmases ever!
