The Polar Express

All Aboard the Polar Express!! We rode the Polar Express in Batesville, MS and had the best time. Will and I prepared by watching the movie a few days before we departed and Will fell in love with the movie. We watched it 3 times before we boarded the Polar Express. The train was supposed to leave at 7:30pm but ended up not leaving till 8pm. 

Doug and I went shopping in Southaven at the new Tanger Outlet mall then headed on over to Batesville to meet his parents at Cracker Barrel with the kids. Nana and Papaw went with us on the Polar Express too. Papaw's love of trains has been passed onto Will now and it's so funny to watch these two on a train ride. 

The Polar Express captured all the aspects of the movie. The chefs were dressed in white and served hot chocolate and sugar cookies, we got our Golden Ticket punched, we saw the North Pole, and picked up Santa and the Elves on the way back home. The whole train ride lasted about an hour. It was so much fun!
