Christmas French Lick Trip with G and Papa

G and Papa gave us a trip to French Lick for our Christmas gift and it could not have been a better present!! Avery now says she likes French Lick better than Weber's Inn which is a huge statement for her. The hotel we stayed at was perfect for kids - It has a SUPER warm pool that was made for families, a bowling alley, an arcade, and a great lobby with beautiful Christmas decorations. Avery got lots of pool time with me, Hung and G. We also took Avery to her first Water Park and she had a blast - She loved the smaller body slides for kids and also did some of the big inner tube slides with Hung. At first she was a little nervous and then realized how fun they were. We also did the Lazy River and played on the obstacles and in the pool area. G came along and took care of Taylor so Hung and I could play with Avery and she just had a blast! We wore her out in the water and she fell asleep sitting up eating a Veggie Straw waiting for dinner :)

The highlight of the trip was the Polar Express train ride that G took Avery on. It was pure magic! Avery got to meet Elves, help propel the "magic train" to and from the North Pole with singing and dancing, and meeting Santa himself who told Avery "I have been looking for you!". Avery is 100% sure she met the real Santa. They also go Hot Chocolate and cookies and did a little shopping at the Christmas tents. She had the BEST time and I hope we can go back next year and all take a ride.

We also had some great meals! Our first night we ate at a pretty fancy restaurant and Avery was a little bored so she made friends with the hostess, Dakota, and spent the whole meal just chatting her up. She loved her so much that she wrote her a card and dropped it off at the restaurant for her the next night. So sweet!

Taylor was a trooper on his first hotel trip. Did well during meals and took good naps while we were out and about. The only downside was Avery not wanting to fall asleep and Taylor waking up throughout the night. We were a little sleepy but it was totally worth it. We had great family time and Avery had a fun filled and magical few days.

Thanks a ton to G and Papa for an amazing Christmas getaway :)
