Cripple Creek Ice Festival

Last weekend we went to Cripple Creek for the Ice Festival. Although it wasn't planned, my sister Natalie and Pete went, as well as Kathy and her sister Sandy with their families. It was all of 15 degrees, so we didn't stay out very long. The sculptures were incredible, and this year the theme was Under the Sea. After we spent some time looking around, we went up to the cabin for hot chocolate and relaxation.

Erica did not want to let go of dad.
Apparently not too happy about the picture, either.
