On Wednesday we rode the Polar Express train with some of our play group friends. It went from Lake Villa to Buffalo Grove. We got of the train at the BG train station and that was the "North Pole". Here are lots of pics from our day! The 4 amigos showing off their Polar Express train tickets.
Here comes the Polar Express train...Hi train!!!
Their was an elf who rode with us on the train. She was Little Miss Lake Villa:) She was really good with the kids and they liked her!
Looking out the window for the North Pole!
Some of our playgroup friends who joined us. We were at the train station having lunch, listening to the Polar Express story and waiting for Santa.
Santa's arrival...he gave Kaitlyn high five on the way in!!
Big hugs for best friends!
Sitting on Santa's lap. This was too funny....Kaitlyn was showing Santa her red painted nails:)
The kids received goodie bags from Santa and the elf.
We played some games...this was pass the Santa(similar to the Hot Potato game). Kaitlyn was passing the Santa quickly before the music went off. Notice Colin in red vest in the background. Out of about 50 kids sitting in the circle the music stopped on Colin the first time around and he was out of the game:( He seemed more confused than upset when he got up..he was a good sport!
We sang Christmas songs and shook our bells. Here is video of the 3 kiddos who were hopping up and down and enjoying the Jingle Bells song:) Getting ready to board the train back home. Bye North Pole!
Poor Barclay....all of the kids wanted to sit with the elf so she had all of the kids in her seat on the ride back:) Thanks Barclay for sitting with all of the kiddos!!
