Ice Castle~ By Shannon the Ice Queen NNY

I am so excited to post this blog! Shannon is a pretty amazing lady and I was more than happy to be apart of such an unique and exciting winter experience. I will let her give you all of the information about what it really took to make this happen. I am just here to show her hard work off to you all.

From your NNY Ice Maker~

I'm not one to sit around and I do love the winter, all the snow, the cold, and the outdoors! I have made some ice creations before but this one was my biggest project yet! At first I was trying to make an igloo but I think i made it too big and I would of needed too many ice blocks to complete it, more than I cared to make! So I decided to turn it into a castle instead with all kinds of neat finishing touches! I added two chairs, a table, ice serving tray, and ice glasses.
In the end my creation had over 800 pieces of colorful ice! In order to make this I used 21 bread loaf pans, 4 cans of Pam, 10 boxes of neon food coloring. For the top row I used balloons, and an odd shaped cake pan. To hold all the blocks and pieces together I used a mixture of snow and water, it acted like a glue.
Who knows what I will create next year?

Ashley + Michael

Ashley + Michael both Texas natives tied the knot October 11, 2014 with their nearest and dearest at The Arbor. These two rekindled their friendship while Michael was deployed and Ashley has been

his rock ever since. Ashley is one of those girls that you meet and you know that she has herself

together, strong and a good heart. Michael being in the Air Force could not of found a better women to

stand by his side through deployments, moves, and the craziness that military life brings. 

Michael's daughter Mackenzie was a big part of this sweet day. She poured sand with them to united 

their family together and Michael picked her up and joined hands with Ashley to walk down the aisle as

a family after they said their I DO's. 

So enough talking and time to just show you.

I wish them a lifetime of happiness!
