ICE ICE BABY!!

The Opryland Hotel has an amazing ICE exhibit every year! This year they did How The Grinch Stole Christmas! It was so fun, amazing and cold. It was only 9 degrees the whole time. We had a couple of layers on. Every picture that you see was made out of ice (except for us, of course but we felt like ice).







I could not believe all the detail and the colors. It was amazing.



They even had ice slides for the boys to go down. Owen got stuck.


At the end they had an amazing ice nativity. The pictures don't even do it justice. I have never seen anything like it.


Afterwards we warmed up with hot coco and homemade smores and this cute little shop!

We're nearby the Gaylord Texan - I wonder if ICE is still there. If it's anything like the one you attended, I would LOVE to check it out. What fun memories. I love the s'mores too. Our families seem to have similar traditions - it's neat reading about your ideas. I get fun ideas from you.

Yes to Debbie that the ICE exhibit is still at the Gaylord Texan-- we are in the same area!-- we saw it this year for the first time. It is sooo amazing, looks like they are done by the same people! :)
