We met the Carlson’s for a showing of the Polar Express on the big screen at the Wildlife Experience. B wasn’t feeling well….he has been out of commission the last two days….but luckily Missi was able to join the girls and me. They were thrilled to have her join us and when we picked her up Annabelle said “It’s Girls Night!”. Trouble.

We had never seen Polar Express and Jennifer warned the girls about the very loud train at the beginning. Gwyneth kept asking if the scary part was coming up….she really doesn’t like scary movies. She was pleasantly surprised when Santa showed up at the end. Nothing scary about that. He has presents! We have this movie on the IPAD but the girls never showed any interest. I think it’s going to be a very different story after this experience.

We sang Christmas Carols on the drive home and Annabelle informed us that when she wakes up and the milk and cookies are gone she will know Santa has been to our house. She said she will call everyone to let them know. Look out Carlson’s — Annabelle is becoming an early riser and she said she is calling you first!
