Our family blogger, Carol Garreans took her kids to the Gaylord Palms event on July 19 to see the official announcement of this year’s holiday events.

She took plenty of photos as the hotel announced that the four Gaylords nationwide were partnering with DreamWorks Animation to produce this year’s ICE! and Snow! events.

At the Gaylord Palms, Shrek will be the theme for ICE!, an annual attraction that features custom-carved ice sculptures in a extremely cold tent area.

Shrek, Madagascar and Kung-Foo Panda characters will also be present throughout the hotel via character breakfasts and more.

Following the announcement ceremony, the various DreamWorks characters were available for photos, and Carol made sure her family got in on that.

The hotel also served up a table of sweets and baked goods for the crowd in attendance.
