North Pole Express



We had a great weekend.  Friday morning we headed to Utah to stay with my sister and her family in Tooele.  On our way Brett wanted to go look at a few cars he had his eye on from KSL.  So when we got into Salt Lake I had him just drop me off at a mall with the kids near where he would be looking at cars.  That mall ended up being the Valley Fair Mall.........Oh man what a mall it is.  For those of you that have been there know what I am talking about.  It was quite the experience, but we made it out alive and Logan was ready to get to Shannon's house.   Logan LOVES Shannon's house!  We got there and went with them to their ward Christmas Party, it was really fun.  

The next morning Brett headed back into Salt Lake to look at more cars.  I stayed with Shan and her family and then at about noon we headed into Salt Lake to meet Brett and head to Heber City for the
NORTH POLE EXPRESS. 
My parents spoiled the entire family with tickets to the North Pole Express train ride.  It was a lot of fun and so fun to be with the entire family.  We loved it and Logan was in heaven being on a train. 

Thanks Mom and Dad!

Check out those matching pj's 




We had cookies and hot coco with cream




This picture is kind of funny, this was Logan's face when Santa climbed aboard the train once we reached the North Pole. 




Santa brought everyone a bell.  Logan was super shy when talking to Santa, but managed to squeak out that he wanted a Dinosaur Train. 



 
The whole Fam!


We spent Saturday night at a Hotel in Salt Lake City, all of us, including my sister that lives just 35 miles away:)  All of our rooms were right by each other:)
Kenzi was not a fan of swimming, Logan loved it.


All of the Grandkids

Kenzi didn't like swimming, but look how cute she looked in her swimming suit!


Oh and by the way Brett did find a car or something that resembles a car:)  I will post a picture later of the little beauty we like to call Quasimoto.
