Christmas indeed!

After some playground time and a game of chess, we had an early dinner and settled in for Christmas Eve!

I am pleased to report with the help of our elf, Elfin, Santa was able to find us on the14th floor of Tower 5 in Orlando. He must have known about our close quarters as he wisely chose small sized gifs for the children, the highlight being iPod touch. Oh no! Definitely will be establishing rules so we don't loose them to technology! 

After a very early morning (thank you Vera) and presents, we ventured to Ice! at Gaylord Palms. The hotel itself was a mini city and beautifully decorated. The displays were amazing!

The theme of the ice sculptures was Frosty. It was very well done but the highlight was the ice slides! And a very intricate nativity scene. It was nice being cold (7 degrees!!) on Christmas. Although, I have to say getting out of there felt good too as we headed to the 75 degree weather and pool outdoors! We grilled for dinner and all enjoyed a quiet early night after a very long day!

This brought us to our last day and the kids chose to go back to Epcot. We managed to get in a few big rides before lunch in Mexico and of course spent the evening at the pool. It was great week and although I am sad to see it go, I am ready to get "home" and start building this house! Merry Christmas to us! Thank you God for all of our blessings but mostly your son! Happy Birthday!
