Christmas Time at Disneyland

The castle is just beautiful at this time of year.  We stayed into the night and watch it snow on Main Street as well.  

Over in Toon Town we put the kids and Grandpa in jail!  Grandpa and Jenna don't look too happy about that!

Is there anything better than "It's A Small World" at Christmastime?  I can still remember riding this ride with my Grandma, Great Aunt, Aunts and cousins with the adults all singing out loud.  

Had to add this picture in here--Dad's been riding Disneyland rides with his girls for decades, and his little girls are still enjoying that fun tradition with him!

We hung out at CA Adventure on Monday afternoon.  The mama's hogged the kids and did all the crazy rides with them.

Thanksgiving Day!

It was wonderful to be together on Thanksgiving in NM!  It was Kelly's first trip to my sister's house.  We may have to make getting together for holidays a tradition!

We attended our cousin Gavin's baptism the day after Thanksgiving.

The Polar Express

The train arrives at the station and we prepare to board...

The staff was very festive.  We sang carols and drank hot cocoa while traveling.

Once we arrived at the North Pole, Santa boarded and greeted us with silver bells for all.

The kids had the best time, and so did the grown-ups!
