North Pole Express

We had the opportunity to go on the North Pole Express today. Eric took off work and we took Bryson out of school. The kids had fun on the train and then we got to see Santa again at the North Pole. This was a good looking Santa. It was a fun day as a family.

Madalyn still wasn't sure about Santa

A beautiful picture of the north pole (aka soldier hollow) I love that I live in this beautiful valley. We had a fresh dusting of snow this morning.

Town Christmas Party

Each year, Midway has a town Christmas Party. At the end Santa comes. This was the first time Maddy has seen Santa so she wasn't quite sure, but after the candy cane she was happy. Bryson asked for a skateboard and Carley asked for a pillow pet.

christmas lights at temple square

Monday night we were in Salt Lake so we decided to go to the lights on Temple Square. I love seeing the lights. The kids had fun too.

When Maddy rides in the stoller usually one child rides on the back and one walks. Eric was pushing the stroller because I was taking pictures and Carley asks if she can ride on his back. So he is pushing Maddy, Bryson and carrying Carley.
