This picture was in the running for our Christmas card.
I love Toby's laugh! |
The day after Christmas Oma and Opa took us down to an amazing place called
The Gaylord National near D.C. for dinner and to see a display of ice sculptures. We took the opportunity to take a bazillion family pictures since we were all dressed up. We had a great seafood dinner in one of the restaurants in the hotel, after walking around the atrium to see all the Christmas decorations.
After our dinner we bundled up in our winter gear and headed out to the tent to see the ice display. Inside the tent it was a chilly 10 degrees because it housed two million pounds of ice carved into different sculptures from The Grinch who Stole Christmas. Each of us was given a huge down parka (to wear on top of our winter jackets). The kids loved it! Each room was a different scene from the movie (or the book). In one room was a huge slide. I already posted the video of Norah going down the slide. Toby went first, but he went so fast that I didn't have time to take a video. Everything in every room of the tent was made of ice. I have no idea how it was done, but it was just incredible.
