All Aboard.........

Grandma and Grandpa Palfreyman treated all their family to a ride on the Christmas Express Train in Heber City. It was super fun to get together and ride a train to the North Pole. Brigham, of course was estatic and is still talking about it.

On the train, we were served hot chocolate and cookies. Elves came and asked each child what they wanted for Christmas, danced, sang Christmas carols, and told Christmas jokes. The conductor came and punched our tickets while we read the book "The Polar Express." Mrs Claus stopped for a visit; finally, when we arrived at the North Pole Santa came aboard. He talked to each child and gave them a bell. Then a train load of sleepy children returned to the station. It was a memorable night.

Kaiya was dancing to the music while waiting to board the train.

Brigham shared a seat with Journey and Oakley.

Brigham and Kaiya have such great cousins. They played with them and entertained them all night long.

This is one of the entertaining elves. Her name is Starburst. I believe she is over five hundred years old. Kaiya loved the cookies, but didn't care for the hot chocolate.

Brigham spent a lot of his ride to the North Pole looking out of the window. Every once in a while he would look back and just giggle. He loved the train.Brigham is not too sure about Santa. At least he isn't screaming like a few years ago.Kaiya just loved getting a bell to jingle.

Brigham spent all his energy on the drive to the North Pole. After he met Santa Claus he was finished for the night.

Kaiya fell asleep shortly after that.

It was a great Christmas memory. Thanks Clark and Aldeen.
