Polar Express in Green Bay

I was finally on the ball this summer and got us tickets for the Polar Express before they sold out. Yes I said this summer. Who would've thought something like this would need tickets bought so early! But we were golden this year. The kids really did enjoy it. Last night we watched the Polar Express movie in preparation! Eddie loved all the big trains. While we were supposed to be listening to the story, Eddie kept pointed at the trains!
They put on a little show and handed out hot chocolate...Eddie loved it. Rowan wasn't into it. She told me later she just wasn't thirsty. 
We listened to a shortened version of the movie via a story teller.

Then it was off to the train for a ride. Kids loved it. They got a piece of chocolate, we sang some carols, and they got their very own bell from Santa's sleigh.
Then once we arrived at the North Pole, we got to see Santa. Rowan told us over and over how she was going to sit on Santa's lap and tell him what she wanted for Christmas (a barbie and stompeez)...but once it was our turn, she wouldn't let go of Ed or even look in Santa's direction. So this is what we ended up with. Eddie wasn't keen on him either, but at least we got the photo before he realized where he was.
