Ice Castles

On Saturday, we went to see the ice castles in Midway.  It was a beautiful day and very warm so we were glad to be able to take advantage of the weather and be outside.  We were hoping that Zuri would fall asleep in the car on the way up, but no such luck, so she was very tired while we were there.  Her favorite part was picking up the ice and playing with it.  

The ice castles are very intricate and very beautiful.  At night they are lit up--we have decided to go back soon and see it at night--sans Zuri.  If you haven't gone up to see the ice castles and are in the area, I highly recommend it!

 

  

 The ice melting in the heat--luckily, because it has been so cold lately, all of the caverns were open to walk through

 

 

About half-way through while Zuri and I were walking, she suddenly said "Daddy...." and wanted to cuddle with daddy for the rest of the time.  There were a couple of times that she almost fell asleep, but each time she would force herself awake so she didn't miss anything.
