"Who hears these words of mine & puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine & does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain came down, the streams rose, & the winds blew & beat against that house, & it fell with a great crash."

Matthew 7:24-27

The Snowflake Express 2015

The kids really wanted to ride the snowflake express again this year.  So, we found out when tickets went on sale, and Erik went and got in line about a half hour before they went on sale…..and he didn't get to the front of the line for almost an hour, crazy!  Anyways, we got tickets for the noon train, and the kids were so excited!  We also got tickets for both sets of grandparents so they could ride too as they all came last year.  We arrived about 11:30 and got in line to get on the train.  We were actually the first people in the car so we had our pick of seats!  We all took a seat and waited for the ride to start!  I wish the snow from the week before would have stuck around, but it had been too warm. :(  We still had fun anyways though, and enjoyed the scenery.  The big kids were excited to see Santa and Mrs. Claus, Grace wasn't so sure though.  They were also really excited to get their bell.  Here are some pictures from our ride!
