Santa Train

About an hour away is a train museum. During the holidays they have a Santa train! So we loaded up the boys and headed that way. We went with Mike, Shannon, Nolan, Carson, Grandma and Papaw Pinti. We really thought that since all the boys like trains, they would really be into it. Well, not so much. Not saying they didn't have fun, but I really thought they would have more than they did. Of course it didn't help that Nolan wasn't feeling well, so that poor guy didn't enjoy any of it. Once we got there we boarded the train, the conductor punched our tickets and off we went for a short train ride. While riding the conductor read the Polar Express over the intercom. Then we stopped and unloaded into a building where Santa was waiting for us. Everyone got to talk to him and have pics taken. Then we all got cookies and hot cocoa. The hard part was having to wait outside for the train to come back and get us. It was freezing outside!!!! The train then took us back to the station to unload again and go home. It was really cool idea, just think they need to plan better so we aren't standing outside for so long in the cold with little kids. But it was nice to get out and do something fun related to the Holidays. Gets you in the spirit!
