Winter Wonderland 1: The Story of the Best Husband Ever

This year it was Brian's turn to be in charge Valentine's Day. As many of you know, Brian is going to be working nights for a while at his new job, and we thought he wouldn't be home on the 14th. Last week he surprised me, asked his Mom to babysit the kids, and took me up to McCall for the Ice Sculptures. How sweet was that! This was one of our favorites. It is a castle set on top of trees with scary faces. It was the biggest sculpture by far, but you couldn't go into it.
Here are some of the scary faces up close.

And this next one is a seal set on the Department of Agriculture "cabin". They did a candyland scene in their yard and had a cabin with the seals and symbols related to the Department all over it. It was elaborate. You can't really tell from the picture, but it's about the size of a hubcap.
