ICE

So, we wanted to take advantage of our time in Texas and take the kids to the Gaylord to see ICE with Madagascar characters. We already knew that Kylie liked it because the girls went one year but we didn't know how Riley would act. He absolutely LOVES the cold so I figured he might have a good time. It's always a guess with that one but when it works out, it's sooooooo sweet!

So we made reservations for Sunday at 3:30- right in the middle of the Cowboys game. Oooops! My poor dad never gets to watch a whole game anymore. But I was so glad that my parents wanted to come with. They are troopers!!

We all had scarfs, mittens, and hats and set off to ICE. It was super crowded in there and once Riles saw the Panda inner-tube ice slide, he started backing up saying, "no!" Six Flags really scarred him for life! We reassured him that we were just going to look at Madagascar characters, we were only going to walk, and it would be very cold! He trusted me and took my hand. Love that!

Kylie is pointing at the 'ballana' for his mouth. It's an old joke. :)

They had an ice slide that Riley said he wanted to go down. He went down the smaller one twice and Kylie and Alan went down the big one a couple of times.

Riley wanted all the characters after. My parents got him the zebra and we got him the giraffe. He seemed happy with that.

Cute pic of Kylie in front of the cool tree. Poor Riles is still learning to smile naturally. ha!

Now we are ready to go to Glorias for FABULOUS Mexican food!! I can't even tell you how wonderful that meal was!!

Poppy took Riley's characters away when we got back. It was a REALLY fun trip!!
