The project required filling dozens of trays with water and colorful food dye, then freezing them for days. <\/p>\n<p>Once solid, the ice cubes were carefully stacked and shaped with water acting as a bonding agent. The result was a fully walk-in igloo large enough for <strong>Sterling and Bronze<\/strong> to explore inside safely, with a cheerful, rainbow-tinted aesthetic that made the effort worthwhile.<\/p>\n<p>In her post, <strong>Brittany <\/strong>candidly admitted that the build was far more challenging than anticipated. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When you see this idea on Instagram and think it&#8217;s a good idea to do, it&#8217;s really important&#8230; that you should probably think again,&#8221; she joked. She also added, &#8220;We would say we&#8217;ll do better next time, but there will never be a next time,&#8221; highlighting both the fun and the effort that went into the ambitious project.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Patrick Mahomes<\/strong> didn&#8217;t hold back his admiration for his wife.
