Its that time of year again! The annual "Cruiser" Express for the Fleming Family! It is simply our version of the Polar Express. I make tickets to hide on the kids beds for them to find and they are VERY excited when they do. We punch the tickets and off we go in pajamas to see Christmas lights with a mug of Hot Chocolate and a treat. All aboard!!!
This year, Phil put the ticket on Emma's pillow, and as she was getting ready for bed, she found it!(above vidoe) Phil made sure to get some video since we haven't really had any before. Owen is still a bit little to get it, but he went right along seeing Emma's excitement. He had his ticket punched and happily got in the car. He LOVES to go in the car. I grabbed our treats and Hot Chocolate and we went out into the newly falling snow. This year it really felt like a winter wonderland! The snow kept coming down and coating everything as we drove around. It was so pretty! We drove around and ended our fun drive at the Temple where they have a nativity scene set up. Then we carefully came back home in an inch of slick snow.
Emma and Owen had a blast! Owen loves to see the lights and says, " Mommyyyy, Mo!" Which of course means Mommy, More! And if you don't respond he repeats. So its alot of, "Look Owen, do you see that?" and so forth. He just gets so excited. Emma is at that perfect age with such an imagination and to be soaking these memories in. Such wonder in her expression and excited anticipation. I wish I could bottle her up just as she is. Its so much fun! Just wanna keep squeezing their cheeks! Ha!
So another year of "cruiser" memories has been made. Its a tradition I am sure we will keep doing well into their teens! Enjoy the little video of Emma finding her ticket!
