A Trip on the Candy Cane Train

As part of Cate's Christmas present we got tickets for the Candy Cane train which goes on a 90 minute round trip between Bath and Wiscassett. Cate was so excited to start her ride.
Cate and Lindsay are boarding the train.

The conductor gives Cate a warm welcome aboard.

Here we are ready to go. Cate also enjoyed the candycane decorated like a reindeer that she ate along the way.

Cate and Mommy

Gramma and Cate ...checking things out.

Wow! That's Santa going by down the aisle.

Santa's helpers give a little performance in Wiscassett.

One of those helpers stopped to talk to Cate. She was only shy for a moment.

Looking out the window as the wintry scene passes by.
Lots of ice on the rivers.
Hometown Bath in the distance.

What a fun ride!!!

Welcome to first Christmas in Maine:)
















Christmas on the inside

















Unpacking boxes of Christmas decorations that have been stored for two years has been so much fun and a bit challenging. Where to place this? Where will that look best? We're happy with the results and thought we'd share our accomplishment:)
