Polar Express Adventure

On friday night we got to ride on the "Polar Express" aka the heber valley railroad. It was decorated inside for Christmas and we went to the north pole. They gave us hot chocolate and chocolate chip cookies. The kids thought it was so much fun to be on a train! When we got to the "North Pole" santa even came on our train. Jaxson and Gabe's faces lit up when they saw him!We read the polar express book and sang christmas songs. We even sang Happy Birthday to Grandma Thomson because her birthday was on saturday. They even had some of santa's elves on the train with us. Towards the end of the train ride some of the elves were telling jokes and they asked if any of the kids had a joke they wanted to tell. Jaxson was sitting on my mom's lap and his hand shot up in the air as soon as they asked that. They told him to come up to the front of the train and tell everyone his joke. I didn't think he would walk up there and tell a joke, I didn't even know he had a joke to tell! But he marched right up to the front of the train, took the microphone and said "What has four legs and doesn't move? A TABLE!" Everyone busted up laughing!! It was hilarious. Nick and I were shocked that he went up there and did that. Jax was pretty proud of himself for doing that too. Jaxson loved the train, and when we got off he told me that he couldn't wait to dream about our polar express adventure.
