Christmas Traditions: The Trains at Northpark

One of our favorite family Christmas traditions is to go to the Trains at Northpark mall.  Jake is always SO excited to go and I couldn't wait to see what Cody thought of them.  We usually go later in December, but since Stephen was off the week of Thanksgiving we decided to go.  It was nice not having such a big crowd.

 

 Cody loved them, of course

 

 This spot, with the double tunnel, is Jake's favorite very year...he would probably stay there for an entire day if we let him!

 Checking it all out

 happy, happy, happy

 

 The hot air balloons in this picture moved up and down, Cody was mesmerized.

 The Texas scene

 I could NOT get him to look at the camera for anything, too much to see!

 Finally got his attention

 Okay, Cody loved the trains, but these elves were all over the train displays and he LOVED them, like would not take his eyes off of them!

 Camped out as his favorite spot until we made him leave.

 

We made it a special day and had lunch at the food court, Which Wich sandwhiches, yum!
