One of my favorite traditions that we do with our daughter, Lydia is visiting ICE! at Gaylord every year. After we visit, we always go to Jellystone park and drive through a Christmas light show! It is always SO magical. My daughter has a BLAST. It is one of those traditions that we plan to do as long as they keep having it.
