North Pole Express

It was a very exciting weekend for the Kaye's. I had purchased tickets a few weeks ago to ride the North Pole Express in Grapevine. This is a train ride that is very similar to the Polar Express. Mason & Taylor love this Christmas movie and it began Mason's fascination with trains. My parents were visiting my Aunt this past weekend, and were able to join us for the evening.

Mason & Taylor had been waiting for this day all week. While Taylor napped Saturday, Mason & I went to pick out pajamas to wear on the train. He loved the Mickey Mouse football pj's and picked out the green snowman pj's for Taylor. I'll let the pictures tell the story. (My dad took more pictures and is a better photographer, so as soon as I get the pictures from him, I'll post them.)

Taylor showing off her PJ's and boots (The girl loves shoes)

The only picture I was able to get of the two of them together.

Before the ride, we went out to dinner.

Mason was a little tired, but didn't crash until the ride home.

Mason's turn

Taylor loved the show and could hardly sit still. She wanted to dance and clap.

Here comes Santa

Taylor cried and screamed when Santa said hi to her. Then as he walked away, she said hi and that she loved him. Mason couldn't wait to meet Santa and shake his hand. He has been talking about it for three days.
