The Polar Express!!

After Thanksgiving, we went with our friends to Flagstaff, Arizona to do the Polar Express on the Grand Canyon Railway. The first night we got in around 7 pm. It was dark so we couldnt see much but when we pulled up to the resort I was a little iffy about it. The check in building was nowhere near the resort. Once we were checked in, we drove to our specific condo. Again, I was like, what? We pulled up to what looked like a house. When we got inside, I was blown away. It was so nice. It was like a luxurious cabin feel with a beautiful fireplace, kitchen equipped with granite counter tops and nice appliances, and a jetted tub in the master bedroom. Our friends stayed in the two bedroom condo and they had a juliet balcony in their condo and a hot tub on the balcony which overlooked a beautiful serene setting. I was sold! We went to I hop once we were settled in for dinner (I LOVE I hop!) and the next day we just chilled. We slept in then took the kids to a mini indoor water park only it was more like a pool with a lazy river and a toy set for the kids. It was cute though. Then we just went back to the condo and relaxed with the fireplace going until evening. We went to dinner with our friends at Chilis (Again, another fav of mine). The next day we went to Sedona, AZ to hike. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. The mountain we climbed had the most amazing views. I was very proud of Kingstonn. He is by far a better hiker than me. Its crazy. That night we went to the Polar Express. We all got on our Pjs which was super fun. The train ride exceeded my expectations. The employees were awesome and played with the kids and sang. When we got to the "North Pole", it was amazing. I got teary eyed when Kingston was so shocked to see it and shouting at Chez and I that we were really there. Santa was there waving at us and then he hopped aboard the train and gave each kid a bell. Kenn was the first kid to receieve a bell but Kingston thinks it was him. Very cool experience and fun little trip.
