Back in 2008, two months after my wife Mona and I got married I carved a decoration that was solely “ours”. I called the little train engine I carved “The Lefebvre Xmas Xpress”. Each year after I have carved another train car and included in the details things that happened to us as a family. Since the beginning we have expanded our family to include our sons Charlie and Oliver and this train has visually represented the good times and the not so good times.

When the train is brought out every Christmas it is assembled and tells the whole story of our family from 2008 till now.
