Our train car was #4966 and George loved that it said "Martinez" (part of his last name)

Hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving! We got to ride the Polar Express on Tuesday night and it was a lot of fun. When we boarded the train we were greeted by Skippy the elf and as we pulled out of the station, the chefs served us all hot cocoa and chocolate chip cookies. Then we followed along in our books as the story was read aloud. As we reached the end of the line, we all looked out our windows and there was Santa standing outside. He climbed on board and passed out bells to all the children who "believed" and wrote down all their Christmas wishes. The kids couldn't stop talking about it on the way home. They watched the movie when they woke up the next morning.
