ICE ICE BABY....

The Gaylord Texan....a fun place to spend the day...Too many sights to post but great nonetheless!!!!

PITER...NO, you can't eat the Gingerbread House...You don't know who's touched it!!!!

Piter you fit right in!!!

Real Texas sized boots....Walk on!

Decorated or not this is a beautiful sight!

Piter can always find a friend wherever he goes...

This fountain is nicely decorated!

Guitar railroad...how cool is that! BUT.....

No matter how awesome the Atrium is....Let's go to the real attraction of the day...

Just follow the snowflake trail....

Where to go from here.....let's go that way....

This way folks...just follow Piter....

C'mon Sally.....we'll show you!!!

That's a whole lotta Ice!!

Food storage for the winter!

Fits right in doesn't he!!!

They are so cute don't cha think????

My new door decor? Nope, unfortunately it would have melted today! Somebody please send Charlie Brown a Christmas Card this year!!!
I don't think Lucy the Doctor can help Piter, do you?
Piter slid down the second slide from your right!!!! I messed up the video...as usual!
Linus tells the story so well....and as wonderful as ICE was....
This is the time of the year we celebrate Christ's birth

May His Peace be with you now and always!

We wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!

This is the end...

This is the end of October and if it weren't for the leaves falling in the pool....it would still be open!
62 degrees F in the water and he is happy to be in it! I'm purple just thinking about it!

Yes that is a real rat!

Playing for musical chairs at the fall festival...

The Elders chose to hang out with him!

It's over???? I didn't even get any candy for all this work!

Three festivals in two days....Whew!!!!

These are not in order but you get the picture anyway!!!!

Welcome to Plano!!!! This was actually our second festival on Friday...the first was Grapefest and Saturday was Oktoberfest but it's all in here!!! Enjoy!!!

ARRRRRRRRRR You ready matey?????

Just a nice shot!

I couldn't believe how hot these things were up close...but in the winter it would be great!!! Unfortunately we were in the humid heat=((((

this balloon was awesome!!!! I know it's double exposed but I love the buffalo above Piter's head...Something about humidity disrupts my Olympus camera....grrr... Piter got his Turkey leg...you will hear more about this further down!!!

Piter and Mr. Chip!!!

Beautiful !

The night balloon glow is amazing and I'm glad we went!!!

Like I said...not in order but fun and exhausting!

Piter really wants to drive one of these and anything else he sees but he isn't quite ready to take that test! Maybe after this year of ESL!!!! Oh well on to Oktoberfest!!!

We'll watch this video again and again!!!

The dancers are always fun to watch but here they are also playing the accordion and the bells!!!

Piter could hardly wain until he was hungry enough to eat lunch!!!! Breakfast at the hotel AND a leftover Turkey leg from the night before took awhile to overcome!!!! He eventually got hungry or just couldn't stand it anymore and had to have some!

These special steins were only $1000 for the set!!!

What a bargain!!! I really love the Tin Man!

They did so much of this....I got dizzy!!!!

Good food and good fun!!!!

Our first time at Grapefest....

No Way you are driving home in that!!!!!

Wine Celler anyone??? No...you cannot drive home either! Limbo!!!!!!! and he can tip his hat at the same time!!! Talented!

I don't think Linus knows what he's talking about! Hrummmp!

Awwwwwww Piter how nice of you to want to help him up!!!

Forget the great pumpkin...look at that spider!!

The kids area was a lot of fun!!!!

Can we get something to eat yet????

The seemed to like their chocolate mint!!!!

The best part of Grapefest for the kids was the Pizza and Ice Cream!!!

I know this is a lot of pictures but then again....we did a lot in a little bit of time!!!!
