Igloo.

A couple of weeks ago when we headed east to Plain Jeremy built an igloo. We figured there is over three feet of snow over there and what can you do with three feet of snow? That's right. Build an igloo.

With each layer we were more and more shocked it turned out. And what we had in it's final form was a complete igloo that sat 4 adults and three kids inside. Six very excited patrons who toasted in it's wintery wonderness.

Parks and Evie helped a lot.

 

So, we finished it up and Jeremy added that last layer on the top and just when we were standing back in amazement of what we had done, Parker says "Great! Now we can build the rest! I want a tunnel and a coffee shop in the front." Sure. Done. Well, actually the next day I took a walk up the river with Evie and we came back to just that. A finished tunnel. And (ahem) a coffee shop.

 

 Parker wanted a sign in front of his store and apparently Jeremy got pretty free with the sharpie, so our little too young to readers had a great little coffee shop going, but the adults were more excited about their wares than they realized. ;)

They took us for all of our change. They grabbed all the drinks out of the fridge they could find, any snacks out of the cupboard and then they made us pay them to get them back. "Ten dollars!" they'd yell at us. "Come back when you have money! REAL money!" So we were forced to give them all of our change. I think they wracked up over six dollars together over the course of a few days.

 

 And we sat in it and enjoyed it. Here's all of us toasting our efforts inside the igloo...

And at night we put the lanterns inside and enjoyed how 

amazing a lighted igloo looks in the dark of the night.

And Evie performed her usual circus tricks.
