This day could easily be Rivers' favorite day in his little 2 1/2 years of life! He is fascinated by trains, is an avid Thomas & Friends fan, and this adventure let him ride a real train...to meet Santa! What could be better? The train ride starts in Heber City, and is run by the Heber Valley Railroad. It was about a 45 minute drive out of Salt Lake and past Park City, and was totally worth the ride. To top it off, it started snowing right when we got there.

| Checking out the big red train! |
 |
| Inside the gift shop - everything is trains, trains, trains! Rivers truly thought he was in heaven. He could hardly finish one thought without starting another "Mama! A train! Mama! A caboose! Mama! Thomas!" |

| Looking out the window during the ride. Little elves brought by chocolate chip cookies and hot chocolate! |
 |
| Inside of the train. We sang Christmas songs, answered Christmas trivia questions and had a "Ho Ho Ho" competition on board. |

| Santa! Rivers told Santa that he wanted race cars and trains for Christmas :) |
 |
| Santa gave him a silver bell from his sleigh! |
