We went to the Ice on Whyte Ice Carving Festival. We decided to hit the festival in the evening because we heard it was all lit up.
As I've stated in many posts, I am not an outdoor winter gal.
Surprise, surprise.
If you attended the festival, you may have seen me, I was dressed in 300 pounds worth of layered clothes.
When I walked, I looked like a zombie, pretty stiff-legged due the clothing and big winter boots and my snowpants made a swish-swish with every stride.
Yup, I'm bringing sexy back.
Did anyone else go down the slide of doom?
My kids are braver than I. I like to be in control and there is none going down this slide. I screamed like a school girl the first half of the slide and the second half, where we were zooming down at bobsled speeds, I stopped screaming and squeezed my eyes shut with fear. It freaked my freak and I'm still drying out 300 pounds of clothing. Though, I have to admit, I'd probably go again if the lines weren't so long.

Hope you all had a great weekend!

I agree with Valerie, great pictures! We must have just missed you - that dude was just finishing the mermaid while we were there.
You are way braver than I am. There was no way I was going down that slide... but the lines were incredibly long, so I'm sticking with that story instead ;)
Thanks Valerie!
Marianne: We were in front of the mermaid for a while actually. My daughter is infatuated with them. Too bad we didn't bump into one another!
The line up was long and the kids REALLY wanted on it. So we figured that if we had to wait with them, then we can go down too. Crazy fast.
