The day after Christmas was a special one! My nephew Parker got baptized. We started the day at the church for the baptism. It was a very special day and I'm so glad he made the trip from California to be baptized here in Texas! It was a nice family baptism! Almost everyone in the family participated. I loved it!
To celebrate, Grandma and Grandpa decided to take us all to the Gaylord Texan and see the exhibit....ICE!!!! We had a BLAST!!!!
We stood in line and they gave each of us huge blue parkas to wear! They said it would get cold, but I had no idea how cold it would get. Let me tell you.....it was COLD!!!! Donny's girlfriend, Sarah flew in on Christmas night to stay for a week. It was super fun to get to know her. She is great for Donny. We had a great time getting to know her! We are looking forward to spending a lot more time with her in the future. :)One of our favorite things was the slide. (both for kids and adults) I took a turn down the slide....I can't say I have ever riden down an ice slide before!
Mom and dad had a great time! Dad even took a spin down the slide!The exhibit was so amazing. If I didn't know everything was ice, I wouldn't believe it! Another favorite spot was at the end...we felt like we were in an ice cave!Kristen and I were having fun getting to know Sarah better! After we warmed up, we decided to walk around the hotel a little. The hotel is absolutely AMAZING!!! It was hard not to take a picture in every spot! There were bridges, fountains, tons of lights, train tracks....AMAZING! I'll have to try and talk Rick into taking me there sometime for a special occasion!!! :)The night ended with Chase getting an awesome present from Grandma and Grandpa! His Disney Scrapbook! It's been a long time coming, and he was so excited to finally have it! Looking through it brought back so many fun memories! Thanks Grandma and Grandpa!
I'm Mad as Hell ... and I think I like it!
