Although we are big fans of the Irvine Park Railroad and have taken
the kids to the train since JT was little, we've never been on the Christmas Train.
This weekend we had the chance to experience the train for the first time
and I have to say that it was magical!
There is something special about twinkle lights, trees, and a train that takes you to Santa.
I felt like I was a kid riding on the Polar Express.
The kids loved it too!
It was exciting to begin a new Christmas tradition and share
the experience with the kids and see how excited they were to visit
with Santa and share their Christmas wishes.

One of my favorite parts of the evening is the twinkle lights tunnel.
It is so cool! I could drive through it over and over again.
Remember to bring your camera to snap pictures and jackets to keep warm.
