Today we went to see the Canadian Pacific Holiday Train! It is a real train, decorated, that has a boxcar with a fold-out stage for live Christmas music, and Santa. It travels to 130 towns across the US and Canada to raise $ for local food shelters. It made a stop in Rochester for an hour this afternoon, and since we'd never been, we decided to give it a try. Carter LOVED it. He and Meg were well-prepared for the 20* (plus a brisk wind) temperatures… me, not so much. Not many pictures of his face, as he was so fascinated by the train, the music, and the big guy himself. We finally bailed on account of my freezing feet – a true Minnesota adventure.

That looks like so much fun!!! Our boys would love that. I love your thankful tree and favorite thanksgiving picture- we love the Macy’s parade on TV too. How do you get your kids to believe in Bob? My mom sent me The Elf on the Shelf book and little guy this year, but John and I were afraid to actually tell Jaxon it was a real elf, because we were afraid he’d look at us like, “Are you kidding me, that’s a toy!” So it’s just another Christmas decoration and book for us. 🙂
