Christmas tree and Santa Train





We spent this weekend in King at Mimi and Popi's house. We got there Friday night and had chili and watched some Christmas specials. Hailey went to bed a little past bed time and got up at 3:40am ready to play. We went to Floyd VA on Saturday to help mimi, popi, uncle Jason and auntie Ali pick out their Christmas trees. We drove through the mountains on some windy roads and Hailey got a little car sick. We had to pull over in somebody's drive way and strip her down in the freezing cold. Luckily I had an extra outfit packed. She slept the rest of the way to get the tree and just wasn't acting like herself. So needless to say we didn't get any good pictures at the tree farm this year. It was cold but it was also snowing so that was fun.

By the time we left the tree farm Hailey was back to her lively self and we had a great time shopping in Floyd and spending time with our family. We even stopped at a little craft show and Hailey made a Christmas ornament with a little help from her mom and dad.





On Sunday we got up and went to Church and then we headed to Spencer to the train museum. They had a Santa train that we promised to take Hailey to. We got on the train and took a little ride and Santa was on the train and came and talked to all the kids. Hailey was a little hesitant of him but she didn't cry. They gave her a candy cane and she thought that was the best. I think she liked riding the train the best and probably didn't care if Santa was there or not. I think we are going to try and take her to see Santa again this weekend and hopefully can get her picture with him.



We stopped to see Gammy on our way home so Daddy could get a hair cut. While we were there Gammy took some cute pictures of Hailey by the tree. She just looks so innocent doesn't she.
