It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...
Wow! It has been a long time since I've given a real post. Life has been pretty normal lately. Recently though we snuck off to Orlando for a little holiday retreat. We got a rockin' deal on a room in the Gaylord Palms Hotel and went to the ICE! exhibit. I have to say, the Gaylord Palms Hotel is the coolest hotel I've ever been to!
Jane and Sawyer getting some pre-ICE! snuggling done.
The entrance to the exhibit. ICE! is 5000 sq/ft of sculpted ice exhibits. Every year it changes.
This is Sawyers' "I'm trying to eat this ice" face. He kept licking the ice even though it's against the rules...naughty, naughty!
The smallest jacket they had BARELY fit Sawyer.
Jane riding on the carousel. This swan boat was really neat.
Sawyer riding on the polar bear.
Jane wants to help Santa deliver his presents this year. She got started with her reindeer riding lessons...
Yes, Jane, there is a Santa...
The cool glasses our hotel gave us to enhance the lights in the atrium at night.
This picture was taken through the glasses. They turned all the lights into twinkling snowflakes.
The atrium
The HUGE Christmas tree!
One of the ponds connected through a system of streams in the lobby. All of the ponds were full of fish! Koi and black catfish! They also had turtles and alligators as well as a castle and a full-size sailboat INSIDE the hotel. Sawyer cried when we left. He thought it was the coolest place ever!
