The North Pole in Colorado Springs

(above) Ah, Michael, my little reindeer pulling our sleigh.  He's just such a wonderfully quirky breath of fresh air. So literal and so funny.

(right) A nursing pit stop. Notice how matchy-matchy Sam and I are in our patriotic colors and chunky legs?!

This is the ride that broke the camel's puking button, or something like that. This thing went round and round and round. Then stopped. Then went backwards round and round and round. Callie rode this 100 times. I rode it once and wanted to hurl into a trash can. Of course, the Tilt-a-Whirl with Joel before this ride probably didn't help.
