The Alamo Christmas Express!

We have been busy doing all kinds of Fun Christmas Adventures! On Saturday we went to the Alamo Christmas Express! We had heard about this a few years ago and finally found time to make it happen this year! and lets just say it was the Best Christmas Experience yet! A new tradition we will be doing every year! Oh my goodness! Let just start by saying its Free! Yes free! Everything was free all night long! We couldn't believe it! Nothing is free! am i right!! lol! They had hot chocolate stations, yummy food, beautiful lights and decor all around, hay rides, small train rides and the big train like the  polar express! They gave us each a golden ticket to aboard the train! We were on the train for a while sing carols, multiple stops along the way to look out the windows and see Christmas scenes in action! They were acting our the story as we were traveling on our train ride! Santa even was on the train and all the kids got to talk to  him and take pictures with him! The train ended at a real live nativity seen! The true meaning of Christmas! It was all amazing the whole night and I highly recommend the travel to Alamo for the amazing Christmas Express! We can't until next year for our new family Christmas tradition! Thank you Western elite and the Williams Family for the wonderful amazing night!

Wet'n'Wild Wonderland!

 

We had the wonderful opportunity to go to the Wet'n'Wild Wonderland! Thanks to my sweet friend Lindy she hooked us up with tickets for the whole family! It was amazing! If you haven't gone you nee to! The lights are amazing! So many lights and music and light shows as well! The whole park was covered in lights and activities! We had a blast! From seeing Santa, to riding a train, to ice skating, to sledding, to rock  climbing, to paint balling, to bounce house! We were all worn out after our wonderland adventure! The food was great too! We had such a wonderful night! We hope they do it again next year so we can make a new fun family tradition!
