We did a family road trip to Ottawa this weekend to see Grampa Mike, Auntie Erin, Uncle Connor and Auntie Meg. We had the most incredible weekend to spend at Winterlude. It was AWESOME! Saturday took us to Jacque Cartier Park in Hull to see the amazing snow sculptures and try our hand at a quick slide down the ice slide. The highlight was snacking on sugar and cinnamon Beavertails! WOW, they are good! We visited with friends Sat. afternoon evening. Sunday was another glorious, sunny day where we went to wander the canal and Confederation Park for the ice sculpting competition. Very Very Fun! Thanks for putting up with us for the weekend. We had a blast!!!
Someday I'll be that big!
The line up for the ice slide. Uncle Connor has Kieran on his shoulders. Look for the absolute tallest person in line. Blue coat, blue frog hat. It helps to have an uncle who is 6'4".
Yeehaw!
So Fun! That was a long line for a quick slide!

Watching the ice sculpting competition. Each participant had one block of ice and two hours to create anything they wanted. The sculptures were incredible!
A beautiful Heron, a little over an hour into the competition. We couldn't get close enough at the end to see the finished result.
