Igloo Under the Stars

Every year, my family and I build an igloo over Christmas. This year's was by far the best and most elaborate one yet. We hauled truck loads of snow blocks from all around my grandparent's ranch. At one point while we were putting the roof on, my dad, my aunt and I were inside holding blocks up from the inside, while little cousins sprayed them so thy'd freeze and my uncle sawed from the outside. It was a lot of fun to get to sit in it and drink hot chocolate at night. We even got the dog to come in!

Thank you! Yes it's quite a finicky task, it took us around 3 days to make.
