Ben, Jake and I went to visit my mom and dad for a few days. We had a really great time. Ben didn't enjoy the car ride there, but he had a much better trip on the way home. Mom, Ben and I went to the Gaylord Hotel to see the "Ice" exhibit. It was really, really neat. They keep the temperature at 9 degrees, so we had to wear very heavy coats provided by the exhibit OVER our coats. Ben wasn't very happy about being in his stroller so we had to put him inside our coats to keep him warm. He was absolutely memorized by the ice, snow, cold, lights, etc. It was really awesome. I hadn't been back to the Gaylord since Jason and I stayed on our wedding night, so it was neat to be back. I also took my bridal portraits there many moons ago, so we tried to revisit some of the places where those pictures were taken to take pictures with my Benjamin!
