I have to admit that one of my favorite parts of my sister working at The Ritz Carlton (besides the discounted hotel stays, of course) is the fabulous Gingerbread House they have at Christmastime. In addition to the one million Christmas lights that adorn the grounds (yes, I said a million), they also have the largest Gingerbread house in the South in their lobby! We attended last year so it was only fitting that we go this year as well. Even though we weren’t able to go until after Christmas, Brittain still had just as much fun.
“Mimi, is this for real?”:
Keep in mind that at this time Brittain wasn’t walking yet. You have no idea how thrilled I was with this moment, even though she was holding onto our hands:
Jeff, Cecilia’s co-worker, hung around to visit. He even took us on a golf cart ride around the property to see all the lights. Brittain LOVED it!:
What a wonderful end to the evening – a candy cane (and it wasn’t even a real one :-)):
