The beauty of having Tatum as my daughter is getting to experience the wonders of the season with her. Every year, the train park transforms into a Winter Wonderland. This year, it did not disappoint.
Tatum and I got there early to get tickets. 
Then we waited. The line is like a mile long, so thankfully Doug took her to play on the swings while I chilled in line with the folks. Finally, we boarded and off we went!
The pictures don’t do it justice! It was glorious with the snow falling. Being 60 degrees, it felt pretty real! Haha.
The next day, we had the opportunity to go to the concert at Scottsdale Bible. Watching the drummers, dancers, singers, and live animals brought Christmas to life. They ended with a real live manger scene. For Tatum and for me, this took Christmas at the train park one step further. It culminated with Jesus being born in the stable and the celebration then beginning.
Tatum got to pet the donkey on the way out. She was the perfect size for him!
The wonders are just beginning. Next stop: The Polar Express!
