Gaylord Texan

We took the boys to the Gaylord Texan to have a little Christmas fun! We spent the night and they all had a great time. It's a very nice hotel and was decorated wonderfully for Christmas. The boys really liked looking at the lights after it got dark.
There was a huge gingerbread house of the hotel. They had all the little details in there too!



There was some cute Elfs to take pictures by


Lots of fun decorations to look at

Britton enjoyed looking like Rudolph and finding the Reindeer





He also enjoyed pretending to be Santa in his sleigh


Then we got to see Santa. We had already gotten a family picture with Santa so we just went up and had a chat and we couldn't take any pictures. We saw Santa that night and then again the following morning. Santa even remembered the boys' names!
Waiting in line to see Santa


Here is a picture of Santa's chair

We even got a decent group photo

Since we stayed at the hotel we got ICE tickets for free.



Since it was so cold they gave everyone parkas. They were really big for the babies and you couldn't take strollers, so it was really interesting walking around with the boys tripping over their coats and not being able to hold our hands very well
The coats went way past their arms and down to their feet





We had to walk through pretty fast since it was cold and the babies were mad about the coats, but I was able to get a few good pictures











They had a slide made out of ice so Britton tried it out. It was hard to walk up the stairs in such a big coat



Then we let Britton go down the sledding hill. It was weird to see snow hills in the middle of a hotel convention room


I'm glad that we payed for the unlimited rides because I think he went down that hill 565 times!!!
I bought the boys little souvenir bells that they really enjoyed playing with. It also kept them busy while Britton was sledding
