Santa Train

As has become a holiday tradition, we headed to Pikes Peak for a ride on the Santa Train!



Getting ready to leave the station:

The Elf Queen:



Meeting Santa and Mrs. Claus:







Santa was great. He talked to the kids for a long time about the meaning of Christmas and told Jackson that he needed to be more helpful to Mom and Dad...then he asked about what they wanted for Christmas, it was really cute.

Then, the kids got to explore the "North Pole" with their friends (while Charlotte slept):









They all had such a good time. Brady was in awe of Santa and he smiled the entire train ride there and back. They loved singing songs, having cookies, meeting Santa and the elves. And, as always, Jackson loved being in the snow. We go with the same group of friends every year...and love this family tradition!
