Fairbanks!!!!

Since we moved here I've wanted to go to Fairbanks at least once and to North Pole Alaska so the kids can say they've been, I know silly reason!  Parker Dragged his feet for the past 7 years about going since we both knew it wouldn't be worth the drive, but with our Alaska time ticking away we convinced him to finally take us over spring break!  Spring break happened to be while the big Ice Alaska event was running which was a blast!  It was totally worth the drive to me and the boys!  Parker won't admit it was worth the drive, but he had a blast too!!  Lucky us Eddie was even good in the car!  He was quite sweet.  Every time Parker went over the bumps on the side of the road he'd giggle and any time he got bored he'd take off his socks and start tickling his feet saying "tickle, tickle, tickle."  Overall a fun family adventure!

There were oodles and oodles of ice slides and the kids couldn't get enough of them!

And tons of play sturctures to explore and play in!
Taking a nap on the ice bed in the ice cabin:)
Even an awesome ice train to climb through.



These were the ultimate ice slides!  Unfortunately I'm the one who went with the boys down it in our sled and I'm the one who takes the pictures, so no pictures of this adventure.  It was pretty fun and scary and the boys loved it, but were too scared to go a second time.  


After the ice playground we went to the Santa Claus house which was just a gift shop and Santa was on winter break, but the thought of being in Santa's city was still exciting for these easy to please boys.
