I will never get over watching my children grow up visiting Gaylord Opryland during the holidays! Each year, I reminisce by looking back at photos from past years. It’s so hard to believe how little my two were when we first visited Opryland during Christmas. These are memories that I cherish seeing their eyes light up seeing the resort dazzling in 9 acres of twinkling lights, decorating gingerbread houses and riding through the atrium in the Delta Boat Christmas Cruise!
There is truly something for everyone to enjoy at Opryland! From the free Delta Atrium Light and Fountain Shows to Pinetop Village which offers ice skating, bumper cars, ice sledding, snowball build and blast and cozy fire pits!
Owen has now added one of these warm parkas from ICE to his Christmas list! ICE featuring Frosty the Snowman was so fun to see! These hand-carved sculptures continue to amaze me! We even got to see one of the sculptors at work! The nostalgia of the beloved story of Frosty warmed this mom’s heart even in these chilly temperatures!
In addition to ICE, you can also find horse drawn carriage rides, an outdoor nativity, breakfast show, holiday dining and so much more!!
