National Harbor fun

A couple days before Christmas we took our kids and the Price girls to the National Harbor. It was a fun place, and they really do it up well for Christmas. We went to the Gaylord Hotel. It is so beautiful and lots is going on for the holidays.

Last year they had a train set up, but this year it got a bit larger. They had a train you could ride on. Of course the minute the kids saw I know what we would be doing. So I smooshed myself inside the caboose since that is where Landon wanted. Really, he was probably tall enough to go alone. It was a bit anti-climactic since it just went in a circle about 7 or 8 times. But the kids still loved it. My knees didn't.

We loved watching the fountain show and ended up staying long enough to see it twice-from 2 different vantage points.


The colors were really pretty.

The whole group. Trying to get 5 kids to smile in the pic....yeah. Getting ready to watch the light show.

The fountain got pretty high in the air. We did feel a bit of a mist being so close to the water.

Spencer loves water in any form. He was thrilled to be so close. He was dancing around and having a blast....all the while getting soaked.

A very wet Spencer. We had to take his sweatshirt off before we left so he wouldn't be freezing cold inside his coat. It was a pretty cold night.
Kaalie and Sarah also had a lot of fun getting wet during the show.
