July 14th After Lunch

After lunch we headed right back out for an afternoon full of fun!

Jacob, Tanner, and Kim on the Skyride


William on the skyride. Down below you can see the train that we would ride later.


This is Santa's post office. You can actually send a letter from here and it will have the north pole postmark on it.


Santa's house. This was the one place that had air conditioning. Lucky for Santa, because it was a lot warmer at the north pole than I thought it would be!


You can see the way Santa is looking over at me, well, I believe that was at the time that Jacob was telling him that he wants a kitten for Christmas.


Nathan and Santa


The never melting snowman


Cool girl!


Uncle Mike, Erick, and Nathan


This sign was posted by the Ferris Wheel letting everyone know that it is the highest Ferris wheel in the world. I've been on taller ones, but due to the elevation here, this one is the highest in the world.
William, Noah, and Avery


Christmas tree ride






Enterprise Space Shuttle (Along with a few other rides, I'm not sure what this has to do with Christmas) Uncle Mike, relax, the ride hasn't even started, why are you looking sick already?


If you look right under the red umbrella thing you can see Jacob's back. For some reason this ride terrified him and he kept his head down the whole time. Poor kid!


Dive Bomber




Spencer, Dad, and Bryce on the carousel. These three stayed together most of the day. Bryce loved going on the rides and it was great that John was willing to take him!


One tired girl!


Maisey and Madi on Granny Bug


Starfighter




Kiddie Wheel


boat ride


Spencer, Bryce, and John on the candy cane coaster


Bryce and Aunt Sheri. The roller coaster was a favorite for everybody!


Annalise's first roller coaster ride. She loved it! It was so fun to hear her giggle around every turn and hill.






Yes, the Stephens clan was dominating the roller coaster. Luckily there weren't many other people in this area while we were there.








Tubs of fun ride...yes that really in the name of this ride. I did not make that up!






Rodeo Rider. This ride would take the kids up a ways and then bounce them as it was coming down. It was really cute!




This was one of Spencer's favorite rides. He rode it multiple times.


We were checking out this mirror on the way out. Bryce thought it was very funny.


some of Santa's reindeer


Spencer enjoying the final train ride of the day.


I think this picture says it all! Santa's workshop was an amazing adventure for all of us.


Once we got home, we had dinner in the pavillion, played a little basketball,




swam, Ashley and her kids had arrived so it was fun to visit with them,




and listened to Grandma read a bed time story to the kids. What a fun day!

I had not idea that the North Pole was so far south!
