Well the Polar Express is always a hit with our boys. Clint was so excited to see Santa but he didn't seem so sure once the Jolly man appeared out the window. The picture of him with his hand out shows his reaction. For about 5 minutes straight he had that same glazed look on his face and just kept waving. He did tell the elves though that he wanted a Santa to bring him a jelly gun(If you've ever seen the old Rudolph, Frosty, and Santa movies there is a song on one of them about misfit toys and there is a gun that shoots jelly-- so that is what Clint has decided is what he really wants-- Great!) Kade has decided he wants a Wii. Ummm ya. . .
The boys loved ringing their bells, as always. Clint also enjoyed snuggling with Darryl. They both were pretty worn out guys. Darryl had spent the day working on a huge tree job with Kirk. Kade loved the cookies too. He was so glad they gave us a recipe so we could make them at our house. Unfortunately there was hardly any snow around this year but most didn't seem to mind or notice. It was great to go all together. Now we've got the Christmas bug and we haven't even hit Thanksgiving! Oh well it's worth it to be able to go for free. Darryl is a reader on the train so the first night, the dress rehearsal night, they let all the families of those who help with the Polar Express go for free-- such a great perk!
