This morning we got up early and headed to toward Grapevine for the day. We had to make a quick pit stop at Bass Pro Shops to pick up some necessities! Hayden was loving all there is to see there!
Then, we were off to enjoy some time at the Gaylord Texan. The Gaylord has so much to offer for Christmas. We had not ever been to see the ICE! exhibit, so we were anxious to see it!
Can you say BRRRRR??!! A whopping 3 degrees in the ICE! tent. They said that 40 male Chinese artists came over from China to create these sculptures. They are amazing! I can’t remember how many millions of pounds of ice they used, but super cool! Literally! ;-)
I was amazed by this huge dragon! All ice!
I couldn’t take many pictures. Because it is so cold, they suggest you keeping your camera tucked away in your coat until you need it. In the last area, it was starting to freeze up on me. Again, literally. But, pictures just don’t do it justice!
I loved this life size nativity scene.
Hayden liked the ICE!, but I am thinking he probably LOVED the trains! I can say he did not want to leave! He may or may not have thrown a fit when it was time to go.
Check out this life size gingerbread house!
They even had train stations made out of cookies! It smelt so good over in this area!
We took some time and enjoyed all there was to offer. Including just enjoying the scenery.
Our schedules from now until Christmas are a little crazy, so I am so thankful for our day we got to spend together as a family!

Looks like a great morning and great family fun!
Looks like lots of fun! And they didn't tell me not to have my camera out.. no wonder mine stopped working after the ice.
