The Polar Express

For Family Home Evening, tonight, we had a Polar Express night.

This morning each child found an invitation to the event at the Breakfast table.

The invitations instructed them to, “Present this ticket for one family viewing of The Polar Express. Wear your favorite PJ’s and bring a blankie. Ticket good for one movie, popcorn and hot chocolate.”

Before movie time we read The Polar Express.

When the kids “arrived” for the movie, their Tickets went into the ticket box.

Following the movie, the kids were asked to check the ticket box for the “First Gift of Christmas.”

The new bells ring for those who Believe.
