Trip to Nashville!

The kids and I got to spend the week after Christmas in Nashville thanks to my dad and Patsy! We had a really nice condo right across from the Gaylord Opryland Hotel and Opry Mills! The Christmas lights were awesome! My mom and stepdad decided to go along with us which made the trip even more fun! Opry Mills is the big shopping mall right there and I have to say that was Madisyn's most favorite place! The first night we ate at the Rainforest Cafe' which is a favorite of the kids. The wait was 2 hrs. so we spent that time in Bass Pro Shops easily! On New Year's Eve we went back to Rainforest Cafe' for a "volcano" which is a whoppin dessert! (Courtesy of my mom!) At the Gaylord we took the boat ride around inside the hotel which was really neat! We were gone from Monday to Thursday which was nice because it still gave us a long weekend before going back to school!
