Speaking of Ice Sculptures:
This guy was still working on it while we got to watch!
We met up with these two crazy kids…
And Tia’s kids too.
There was a really cool art exhibit there too.
Familiar faces…
The lights were really quite beautiful.
Mirah and her dad.
They were selling $1 pumpkin cupcakes which we LOVED.
The cold really started getting to us. We tried to get warm by the fire.
BUT, we eventually just got too cold.
Fun night.
