World Ice Art Championships

Lately, I feel like we live for the weekends. We can't wait to actually have some time with daddy. He has been working quite a bit through the week (up at 4 am to head to work and home around 6:30 then to bed around 8) and wore out. We let daddy take a good long nap on Saturday so he would be well rested and ready to play.
The weather here has been amazing and reaching into the 40's!!! We have been able to get outside and play tons now that everyone is feeling better.
One thing we made sure to visit was the World Ice Art Championships here in Fairbanks. it really is so amazing to see the talent and work that went into all of these awesome sculptures.










The kids had a blast! I love how they are able to climb and slide on everything and not just have to look at it. Lance's Favorite was the giant slides. We brought along their bike helmets for the big slide. We didn't want any head injuries.

 This Stegosaurus was definitely a favorite of all of ours!!!
Since the temperatures were above freezing the ice was melting a little. Some of the abstract sculptures had started to melt and break so it was a little tough telling what some things were supposed to be.
Allot fo the sculptures were off dragons. This one was built by a team from Mongolia.

I love the dancers!


The kids were wore out from all the fun so we drove down to check on the farm while they napped. We checked the game cam to find out that we had more visitors in the past week.
 I love the picture of this Grey jay!
God blessed us with a beautiful day with amazing weather and a fun weekend together as a family! Andrew is taking off Friday and I can't wait for our 3 day weekend! We have some exciting things going to happen!!!
