Last night Jennifer and I joined another couple and their child on the Polar Express. While the weather was not wintery at all, we still had a great time.
The Heart of Dixie each year has the Polar Express where you purchase a ticket and climb aboard the train and ride to the North Pole where Santa himself and Mrs. Santa and LOTS of Elfs climb aboard to see all the kids and adults.
Along the ride there is a guy that reads the "Polar Express" story and plays and sings music. He is very good at it and very animated!
We had our picture taken with Mr. and Mrs. Santa and as soon as I download it I will post it. Next year Corban will be here and he will be about 9 months or so and it will be really fun to take him. The couple's little boy that went last night had lots of fun though he wasn't fond of Santa or the Elfs unless they were standing far away.
If you have never road the Polar Express I would say that it is something that is good to do once. The tickets are about $20 something each but if you are 2 and under you ride for free. They also give things to the kids each year. This year was bells and an ornament and you get chocolate milk and cookies. It makes even the biggest adult act like a kid again!

If you really liked the ride then I also suggest the Polar Express P.J. party at the mcwayne center. It is 10$ per person; however, you don't get a train ride. You do get hot chocolate, cookies, a visit with santa, the movie "the polar express" on Imax and a tour of a train exhibit which is phenominal! Just a suggestion for later....that is what we are doing this weekend! I'm so excited!
we need to take the babies to this next year! remind ahead of time so I can save for it.
