ICE @ Gaylord Palms Hotel

Orlando, Florida

29 November 2010

The hotel hires these asian artisans to come in and sculpt these ice sculptures out of 2 million tons of ice. The display is then kept frozen in the convention center with freezer units that maintain a temperature of only NINE (9) degrees. They provide a parka...but it was still freezy.

Enjoy this Christmas Season....love all of us from Florida.

We had a good Thanksgiving at Scott's house.

I think the best part was all being together since Scott lives in St. George now. Sheila will move down in January, and Drew and Lynette will stay in the Highland house as it goes on the market.

A few highlights from our weekend:
Here's RJ wearing Grandpa Kelly's oil ring after he fell asleep.

Another big event over Thanksgiving was Scott (the hair nazi) let Drew cut his hair.

Drew's been full time in barber school for 4 months, and Scott felt that was finally sufficient to give Drew a try.

Inspecting as they go....
When Drew was done, Scott said it was perfect.

Drew will open his own barber shop next to Lynette's tailoring/ seamstress business in the spring.

I think most people might already know through Facebook or our blog, but we're pregnant with our 2nd, having a little girl in March. So RJ will be 3 years older and we're all excited. We're liking Idaho, and have tons of snow from these last 2 weeks.

Happy Thanksgiving

from

Florida

Mom fixed a most excellent dinner and we had the greatest time together.

32 weeks and counting! Here is a picture from a week ago at one of my baby showers. Its been a busy month since I arrived in town in October. After the family/family friends baby shower last Sunday, I took the red eye to Bermuda to see John. He was there sorting out some stuff for our move there next year. It was nice to see him, we had already spent 3 weeks apart, and now just 4 more until he comes out in December for the long haul!. I returned on Friday and had friends baby shower on Saturday, so needless to say its been nonstop!

Looking forward to Thanksgiving next week, just have a sorority reunion at our house this Saturday and then I can concentrate on some serious eating! Really looking forward to "nest" and get the nursery in order for the babies arrival.

Hope everyone is well and wishing you all a very Happy Thanksgiving! We all have a lot to be thankful for - esp great family!
