Alice in Wonderland

My cousin and her family are staying at my parents' house this week. Yesterday they took their oldest to Six Flags so my mom and I took their daughter Caroline out for a girls day!

My cousin Amy, her husband Rodney, and their kiddos Jack and Caroline!

The Gaylord has an Alice and Wonderland exhibit going on so part of our day was spent there checking things out - I highly recommend it if you are in the DFW area - it was so neat! (And not to mention - FREE! There are some activities to do that cost money but you can walk around and see it all for free.)

Warning: LOTS of pictures!!

They had illustrations from the story next to each of the displays - so pretty!

I think this was Caroline's favorite - look at that smile! There's a guy who was actually sculpting this and you can watch him! His tools were all sitting out, but we didn't get to see him.

This was where you could have a Tea Party with Alice!


Stay tuned for part 2 of our day - Tea Party!!
