Moody Gardens - Ice Sculptures

The day before New Years Eve we went to Moody Gardens in Galveston to see the ice sculptures and the festival of lights. To make it more fun, we decided to stay at the hotel over night.  Staying in a hotel is one of Elijah's favorite thing to do! 

 The view from our room

On they way to see the sculptures Elijah got to make some smores at the hotel.

 

The ice sculptures was a SpongeBob Squaredpants themed. 
What we thought was rather funny is that Elijah has no clue who Sponge Bob is nor has ever watched the show. But he still enjoyed all of it anyways.

Memories of Christmas

 Gifts from Santa 

 Santa even put lights on Elijah's gifts

 A Nerf gun
This was the only toy Elijah asked Santa for

 Can it be?

 Yes it is 
A show box for lights
He didn't ask for this but Santa got it for him because he knows Elijah still likes Christmas lights a lot!

Last but not least...

 His own printer

 He was so excited about this!

 Elijah spent a long time during the day in his room "making" gifts for us.
In this big bag is the gift he made for his Daddy




 Yea! Daddy liked what I made him

 Better working Internet "upstairs" make this boy happy

Mommy's had been wanting a big monitor 

Elijah and Byron have this on going fun about a certain fork they both like to use. So Byron bought him his own set so he wouldn't use "the fork".
And Elijah loved it. These two!...never a dull moment.


 Elijah's computer
He already had a wireless keyboard and large monitor that he used with my old laptop. So now, he as his own set up.
