It's our annual trip to the Gaylord Texan to see ICE!
If you are an avid reader of my witty yet utterly awesome blog (that is sarcasm) you'll know from posts past, ICE! is, well, ice. This years theme was Shrek The Halls.
Little R on her way down the ever popular ICE! slide. G was on the other side but I couldn't get over fast enough to get a pic but Mr. D did get him on video:) Every year they have a smaller slide for kids under 40" and of course Baby R was all about going till we got to the top of the stairs and she stared, and stared, and stared then cried. The lady at the top was so sweet in trying to talk her into it. I let so many other children go in front of her and since Mr. D was waiting at the bottom with video rolling, I played my "Christmas Story" card and shoved her down whether she liked it or not. Mean mommy moment? Probably. But it was good for her, LOL!! She did fine until she got to the bottom of this ever so short of a slide and took one look at Mr. D waiting for her and burst into tears. Mr. D had to go rescue her as she wasn't about to stand up and walk away. Good times!
This year we got to share this experience with relatives!! A couple days after Christmas Mr. D's brother Willis and his wife Whitney and baby Oliver came to hang out. I felt horrible though because if you remember, G wasn't feeling good on Christmas and he passed on his sicky germs to his two sisters just in time for family to arrive:( I had all 3 kids on antibiotics at the same time, that was a first and I hope to never have that happen again. In case you are wondering, yes, I disinfected constantly and washed hands religiously but alas, the germs still multiplied faster than what I could do to keep up with them. BUT, the good thing was is little Oliver wasn't feeling good either so we just had a houseful of sick kids:)
All of us in our blue parkas.
Who is coming with us next year? Hopefully no sick children will be present;)
