We braved the impending snow storm tonight and headed to Lake City to view the Canadian Pacific Holiday Train with DJ and Beth. First we made a stop at the library to watch the Polar Express movie, make a train ornament, and view some neat model trains.
Here the boys are watching the Polar Express. (We actually just watched this movie last night at home and Evan really loved it.)
Later on we went down to the tracks to view the Holiday Train.
The lights were actually pretty impressive, and there was a live band playing Christmas songs in one of the cars (below.)
Evan and DJ had a 45-minute snowball fight...
and made snow angels...
AND, got to meet Santa!
It was a really fun time, despite the cold. We times our departure perfectly and were able to view the train on its ride to Red Wing. We raced it to the levee and caught it just in time to watch it roll to a stop for the night before we headed home. What a fun time! Definitely something we will plan to do again next year.
