ICE

Our friends, Rachel and Joe, told us about the Gaylord's ICE last year. We were super excited when we heard that they would be doing it again this year.
This year the theme was the Grinch. So, Friday night, we had the kiddos watch the original cartoon. They watched it about five times and were super excited to see the ICE show.
We all bundled up GOOD! Thank goodness we did. It was 9 degrees in there. They also gave us coats. Nate ended up carrying Link around because his was so big. He looked like a blue penguin.
The pictures do not do it justice. It was so amazing!
This was my favorite scene. It looked so real.
Ethan got in trouble by the guards here. He was sitting on the Grinch. I guess that is frowned upon here!
In this big room, they had four slides made out of ice. Two were for children under 40 inches and two were for everyone above 40 inches. Link was so offended that he could not ride on the bigger slide. He went down and it was much faster than he thought. It scared him and he wouldn't go down again. E loved it. There is a video at the end of this blog with a snipet of him going down.
The Grinch's heart grew!!!
At the very end, they had a room with the nativity! They had speakers that explained that this is what Christmas is really about. It was so much fun!
