For Christmas last year, Mark and I decided that we would take the girls to have experiences for Christmas instead of buying a ton of presents. This is our main gift to Kelsey as well. This year we talked for months about taking the girls to the Cabbage Patch Hospital in North Georgia. On Christmas Eve, we decided to look up information on the Cabbage Patch Hospital and came across reviews. Review after review used the word "creepy!" We were laughing hysterically reading the reviews and Mark promptly made the decision that we were not going. I was bummed that night for sure but didn't make a big fuss about it. We decided to take them downtown or somewhere else. However, a week or so passed and Mark said that he would put up with the creepy so off we went.
We took the girls to stay at a hotel with an indoor pool. This is them checking it out when we first got there.
We took them out for a fancy pizza dinner and then promptly plopped into bed. The girls were so sweet and did a wonderful job sleeping in the hotel. :-)
The next morning we headed off to the Cabbage Patch Hospital and it was every bit as creepy and funny as people said. Don't you love the baby head coming out of the cabbage?!
All of the magic happens at this tree. A doctor comes and announces that a baby will be born. There are lots of twinkling lights and movement among the cabbages. Sadly I can't remember all of these silly terms that they used but they are all adjusted to fit the cabbage theme.
After a baby is born they let you hold it. Kelsey had a little practice. I thought that there would be much more to the "hospital" than there actually was. Of course, the hospital is really a giant gift shop, with a little play area! It was entertaining to go once and we can laugh about it but I would definitely never go again.
The girls enjoyed their time playing though and all three came away with babies. We even had to take an adoption pledge before leaving!
Good times were had by all!
