Lennon, Mia and I spent several hours over two or three days time working on building a snow/ice fort. It was coming along really well and we were all excited to get it done. I didn't think I wanted to bother with trying to figure out how to get it to come together in the middle, so I thought we could just drape a blanket over the top when we were done. Unfortunately, Mateus had a sleepover and they wrecked the whole thing before we could get it finished and then we lost our motivation. Mia was pretty sad and cried, but Lennon took it in stride.
I didn't really get a great picture of the size of the fort, but this one at least gives you some idea of how tall it was. Lennon could stand up and it was still taller than him, so I'd say it was about 40 inches high and you could probably have fit four adults sitting cross legged inside.
We would have gotten further with the fort, but Lennon insisted on having a tunnel entrance on the side, so we spent about an hour making him his tunnel and making sure it was safe to crawl through. It turned out pretty cool and the kids thought it was awesome to glide through on their bellies.

That's the coolest ice fort I have ever seen. You guys are awesome! I wish I could have been there to help. I love you.
