I’ve been absolutely terrible at blogging our personal outings. We’ve done so much since the beginning of fall and practically nothing has made it on the blog! Shame on me. Hopefully I’ll get some more blogging done before the years out! I’ve got new plans for the new year-blogging wise so we’ll give this a go until the new year!

Anyhoo! We went to the ICE! Exhibit at the Gaylord National Hotel a week ago. We had so much fun and it didn’t take the whole day up! Here’s some pictures and a few videos of our little adventure. And for those of you who don’t know, everything is made of ice, and it’s 9 degrees inside! Famous ice sculptors from around the world come and work on this exhibit. And for those Discovery Channel nerds, most of them come here after they work on the famous Ice Hotel in Kiruna!

I couldn’t get over Gracie in this parka. I might make her wear one around the house it’s so cute 😉

I have to say first, I was taking pictures and videoing-AND dying laughing, tears and all. And ugh, I hate the sound of my voice. I sound like a blubbering idiot. LOL so be warned. 😉

We were pleasantly surprised to see a full nativity along with audio of the story of Jesus’ birth. Pretty cool to see that!

I was too cheap to buy the photo they took of us at the beginning ($25! um no thanks!) So, I cheated and snapped a photo of the photo! LOL

She loves trains! So she had to ride this one! We were very surprised to see how brave she was. She got on by herself, sat there for about 5 minutes and let the man buckle her and give her the ticket. Between going down the slide alone, and riding the train all by herself (us being separated from her by the railings) we were pretty proud of her that day!
