Last friday we drove down to Midway to visit my Sister in law Jolynn, her hubby Dave and my little nephew Lennox while they stayed there for a couple of days for a conference that Dave had for work. I love going to Midway, it's the type of place that even though you're still "home" technically, you feel like you're on vacation. So that's what this was for Jo and Dave, they were staying there one more night and just enjoying the time together on their little get-away. Another great thing about Midway right now is the AMAZING attraction of the Ice Castles. This was a huge reason for us driving down. I have heard of these castles and always been curious but have never gone down to see them. Wow, they are truly incredible! The castles are made purley of ice, nothing structural is holding them up. At least as far as I know. They were built by adding layer upon layer of ice over time to create these huge castles that you can walk through! What makes them even more beautiful is that they put lights in them to make them have a bluish glow. And you know one of the best parts of this little attraction? It was only 5 DOLLARS per adult to get in! Wow, how often do you find activities that cheap anymore? So this was definitely worth the drive down to Midway! I did feel a little bad about not getting Kate into bed until about 10:30pm. But she seemed to really enjoy looking at the castles, or maybe just all of the people....Either way she was happy! It was a just fun night free from stresses and full of beautiful sights!
All of us! Dave (with Lj), Jo, me (with Kate) & Bobby!
