The kiddos wrote some nice letters to Santa and then both put them in the mail!
Letters to Santa

The Polar Express
This weekend we drove deep into North Carolina to the train station that would take us to the North Pole. Once we arrived at our hotel we read our copy of The Polar Express, changed into our pajamas, and went to the train depot. We had fun playing reindeer games, exploring, and watching a bubble show before checking our tickets getting in line for the train. Once we got on the train we received our official tickets, hot chocolate, and cookies. They read us The Polar Express book and before we knew it we were at the North Pole! We exited the train to see Santa’s sleigh with all his reindeer and watched Santa give out the first gift of Christmas, a bell. Back on the train we were singing and Santa himself came on board and gave each of us a bell. We all had a great time!
Alex’s Christmas Concert
Today Alex had his Christmas concert at preschool. He did a great job singing all his songs with his classmates!
The Grinch Movie
We got free tickets (plus donuts, orange juice, and popcorn) from our amazing realtor (and friend) Deb to see The Grinch. Everyone had a good time and we saw Santa before the movie! Afterwards we went to Dim Sum and then to the park to play and roll down the hill.
Oma and Opa visit
Oma and Opa visited us for a few days this week. We had a good time catching up with them and since both kids were at school they got to go and have lunch with Brooke at school. We also played a lot and had a great time. They were heading off to vacation after visiting with us and I forgot to get Opa’s pictures but here a few we took!
