ICE - Nashville weekend

The weekend before Thanksgiving we traveled to Nashville to have a fun weekend with Doug's family and have Thanksgiving a different way. We had so much fun, minus the fact that I got sick the day we left but I toughed it out and made it, just didn't have an appetite. We visited Opryland Hotel and they had just opened their ICE exhibit with Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer as the theme. I had never been and wanted to see what it was all about. It was 9 degrees inside the exhibit and the ICE exhibit was hand carved sculptures all based on the Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer movie. We bundled and layered up to stay warm. They provided parkas for us to wear and we stayed warm that way. Inside the ICE exhibit was 3 slides that you could ride and we had a blast going down them with Will. After the ICE exhibit we headed over to check out the Opryland Hotel and see the Christmas decorations. Inside the hotel there were train rides, Build A Bear workshop, Santa, and much more. We had a great weekend. Later that evening we also bundled up (minus Luke and Nana Lou) and headed to watch the Rebels play Vanderbilt. It was cold and the outcome was not good and we left at 3rd quarter. The next day we went shopping for a bit and headed back home. It was a fun weekend in Nashville with Doug's family.
