Christmas Decorations - Part 2

A NEW TRADITION

Karsten and I decided that because Kellen loves trains so much, we should start watching The Polar Express as an annual Christmas tradition. If you haven't seen the movie I would highly recommend it. We bought the 3D and regular version of the movie. Karsten and I first saw it in 3D at the IMAX in Chattanooga with his family before Kellen was born and grew to love the movie. So, we decided that we would watch the movie together after the decorations were finished. We went and picked up a take home Papa Murphys pizza and settled in to watch it. Kellen watched the ENTIRE movie without getting up to play and since saturday evening has watched it again and again. We attempted the 3D version first but to our disappointment either the glasses or our TV wasn't cooperating so we had to switch to the standard version. Here are some pictures of Kellen with the glasses - I can't believe he kept them on - he loved them!!






Poor Kellen didn't even know the 3D wasn't working. He's such a good sport. But we made him take them off because it was hurting our eyes.

Here are the finished products of our decorations as well:

  1. Beautiful Tree, My son Bill (37) loves this movie and we have to watch it with him on Thanksgiving Day to get ready for Christmas. You can tell a good movie when it keeps a child's interest!
    Yeah Kellen!
