6th Anniversary Weekend

I think that for our 6th wedding anniversary we did the most fun thing that we've ever done as far as anniversary celebrations go. We went to the Snoopy Ice show at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, TX. Everything is made of ice that is hand carved by Chinese stone sculpture artists. The whole thing is in a tent turned freezer & they give you parkas to wear. Snoopy was one of mine & Jon's favorite cartoons when we were growing up (back when it was actually worth it to get up & watch cartoons on Saturday mornings!). What's funny is that both of our favorite was Garfield... you never know maybe they'll do a Garfield Ice show some Christmas, since they have a different theme every year. It was really fun, & we've already decided that one day when we have kids we are going to take them as many years as we are able to as a sort of family tradition.

Jon getting up from the big ice slide. He almost didn't do it, but I made him... you can tell from the look on his face I think he was glad I made him. I did it first, & being the kid at heart that I am I would have done it over & over if I could have :)

The Nativity made out of ice was enormous, and the pictures just don't do it justice! It was beautiful!



I thought the Christmas tree made out of wine bottles was really neat. It was so big!
The little house is actually made out of 800 sheets of real gingerbread baked by Duncan Donuts. It smelled so good, just standing near it!

Here we are eating our dessert at The Oak Room restaurant inside the Gaylord. I had a delicious creme brulee' and Jon had these little chocolate muffin things with raspberry and chocolate sauce.

We also got to visit the Dr. Pepper museum in Waco before we went to the OU vs. Baylor game!
