We traveled to Dallas to visit Liz's family and Randall's Sister and her Husband during Thanksgiving Week. Thought we'd share pics from some of our time together...
Morgan and her MiMi (Liz's Mom)
Micah loves Uncle Chris!!! (Liz's Brother)
We then went to ICE, held at The Texan Gaylord and this year's theme is Merry Madagascar, taken from Madagascar, the Movie. ICE is a spin off of a place in China, where the temperature gets below 30 degrees in the Winter and they have buildings, villages and other ice sculptures there for tourist attractions. This was brought to Texas about 4 years ago.
Some Real Info about ICE:
Over 2 Million pounds of ice were brought in for the sculptures
Over 12 million Ornaments were used
The temperature was 9 degrees (explains the Perkas!)
The temperature was 9 degrees (explains the Perkas!)
All of the figurines are made of ice!!!!

Siblings... together again... Yes, I (Liz) am the oldest :)
My (Liz) Dad and us!!
It was literally impossible getting this family pic because directly behind us was a train (Micah's 1st love). So pulling him away from the trains was difficult. But we got one :)
Will be posting more Christmas pics soon!!!

What a really cool place to go! The sculptures are really amazing! You guys look great!
Oh I love the Gaylord. We've never stayed there just did the Ice stuff, but it always looks so nice. Yeah I bet the trains were a distraction for Micah! So glad you guys got to do that as a family, don't see much snow and ice around here, ha ha!
