'cause we need a little christmas

right this very instant!

it's easy to forget how great christmas is when you don't decorate for it. we never have any christmas spirit around here until we get to our destination.

this year we kicked our xmas into gear by riding the santa train. so. stinkin. fun. love this thing. for once i only have great things to say about the cat. they really do it up. the train is covered in lights, santa has a sleigh and elf helpers, all the poles inside the train are candy cane striped, all the adverts inside the train are for business in the north pole and so on.

it was hard to tell what lil thought of it all. however she goes NUTS when she watches the videos we took. so she clearly enjoyed it.
