All Aboard

We had so much fun at our Christmas Party with our ward. It was "The Polar Express" theme, and it turned out so cute. All the kids got to wear their jammies (and some parents too!!). We ate breakfast and made reindeer with marshmellows and toothpicks. The kids then paraded around the gym in their jammies before cozying up to hear a bedtime story.
The story was read by an awesome conductor and they stopped in the middle to pass out hot cocoa (where it talks about having cocoa on the train). They had a train on stage and choo-choo noises and then during the cocoa pass out the song "Hot, Hot, Hot." It was just so fun.
The primary also sang their traditional Christmas songs and then Santa stopped by for a visit.
He had train whistles for all the kids! They love them. Kiana immediately jumped off a tin canister and bonked herself with her whistle leaving a nice shiner!! Maile played the, "I'm too scared, I'll cry..." card. Kiana told Santa she wants a Buzz and ponies and she told Santa that Maile wants a baby doll. Hope he can deliver.
