Gaylord National Christmas at the Potomac 2016

“It’s the most wonderful time of the year….” After last weeks visit to the Gaylord National, I really can’t get the song out of my head… I am ready for Christmas!

Visiting the Gaylord National was an amazing way to get into the holiday spirit. The resort and convention center were beautifully decorated. It’s hard not to feel festive when you marvel at more than 2 million twinkling lights around a 55-foot tree. When visiting the nightly light show at Gaylord National’s Christmas on the Potomac, it snows inside and fountains dance beautifully in time to the music. It’s great for a stroll inside their gardens and perhaps a stop for a warm cup of coffee.

There is much more to the Gaylord at Christmastime than just a magical tree show. This year we had a lovely brunch with Snoopy, Charlie Brown and Lucy. Afterwards, my family and I took advantage of the Play All Day + ICE! This is the all encompassing package. It’s purchase saves you an immediate $35 dollars (over buying individually) and bundles their five popular holiday events including admission of ICE!, Gingerbread Decorating Corner, three amusement park rides, The Elf on the Shelf® Scavenger Hunt and a cup of Hot Cocoa! My girls loved finding The Elf on the Shelf around the hotel (after all, we are an Elf on the Shelf Family). We also had a great time visiting Santa – it was our little guys first visit. The event and fun was topped off with ICE! and four magical slides of fun – even I took a few spins down!

Experience the magic of more than TWO MILLION pounds of hand-carved ice sculptures and slide down two-story ice slides. All kept at a chilly 9 degrees! Delight in the celebration of cultures through holiday scenes and travel to the North Pole to see Santa and his elves.

Truly it’s a family event to remember, my children could not stop saying “thank you” and “mom is the best!”

Christmas on the Potomac comes to Gaylord National Resort featuring ICE!

What is Elf on the Shelf?

Elf on the Shelf is a Christmas Tradition. The tradition has a book and a elf doll. The book is poetic and in rhyme sharing the purpose of the Elf’s visits. The Elf visits each Thanksgiving. He/She goes and returns from the North Pole each evening. Every morning he can be found in a new location in the house. The Elf has been found in the refrigerator, fishing in the toilet, writing messages on the mirror or hanging from the lights. It is VERY IMPORTANT, the Elf is not touch each evening or his Christmas magic will be lost! Each family is able to name their special elf. The elves return to their home (Santa’s North Pole Work shop) every Christmas Eve. An Elf’s Story can also be found on DVD

Online you can find ENDLESS Elf on the Shelf Accessories, Books, Games and Toys.

Now that Thanksgiving is past, it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas – no!? We are beginning to see a drop of leaves, cooler temps, and are beginning to dream of snow in the Washington DC area. If you too have Christmas on your mind, take a look at this Crab Pot Trees offer for 30% off.

Crab Pot Christmas Trees are remarkable, perfectly shaped trees that are pre-lit, fold flat for storage, sparkle from EVERY angle and are easily set up. They are Created and patented by Coastal North Carolina crab trap maker Nicky Harvey and Made in the USA by hard-working local fishing family members.

What makes these holiday trees so unique and the MUST HAVE of the season for home decor? Crab Pot Christmas Trees are made from the very durable PVC Coated Crab Pot Wire which withstands all that Mother Nature throws at it. Want to see these fold flat Crab Pot Christmas Trees? Check out the fold flat trees in this video, because seeing is believing and this is how you can make the season sparkle with ease.

We JUST had a change to try one out ourselves and it was SOOO easy and so well made and it looks great in our front yard. The second we put our tree out, the other neighbors started putting their Christmas decorations up as well – I think they were inspired! These trees come in different shapes and sizes. Ours, pictured above, is about 2′ with multi color lights. It came in a box that was small and light weight. It will fold up easily for storage. We live right outside Maryland, the crab capital of the world, and my kids love that these trees were made from the same wire as crab traps!

I love that they are built durable and can handle snow, rain, and all sorts of weather elements. This means I will have it for years to come! Right now my readers can save 30% Off Crab Pot Christmas Trees with promo code USFG16.

Enjoy!
