Girls,

We took a little get-away to the Opryland Hotel this past weekend. You two LOVED it!!! There was an exhibit called "ICE" that featured scenes from the old movie, "Santa Clause is coming to town" carved completely out of ice. It was 9 degrees in there so we had to wear these large blue parkas. Virginia, Your dad and I were laughing so hard while trying to stuff your arm into the parka. It was wayyy to big but the sleeves were tight so in order to get your hand out we had to shove it up on your arm until you couldn't put your arms down by your side. We kept calling you "Randy" from "A Christmas Story." We also went to another exhibit they were having called "SNOW." It was really snowing there-actually really hard so it was freeezing walking there but you both had a great time. We really needed to get away and just have some good ole family time and it did just the trick. We had a room with a little balcony and I think you thought the room was about the coolest part. You could not have been sweeter. You both did not want to leave and then were begging to come back next year. I think next year we will try and go to the Rockettes as well. I am LOVING the ages that you are right now. We can pick up and go with little effort but you are both still so innocent and sweet.
