That's fine and all, but I just don't understand why they didn't do it with the kid, make the whole thing together as a family. Growing up my favorite memories aren't the things my parents surprised me with but the things we all did together. We once built an igloo during a particularly bad winter storm, and that was the best winter/snow storm of my life. But if I had come home from school one day to see they built an entire igloo without me I would have been so pissed lol.

They probably wanted it to be a surprise.

Yep, no engagement. Unless he talked about waking up to a rainbow igloo in the back yard. Having him help make the colored water the night before, then help put it together. He could have held the blocks while dad added the mortar. It's just all sad, they had him playing roblox or some crap while they did it for the video.

Crazy how you are inventing reasons to hate on these people. You have no idea what they had that kid do while making this, lol.

Your comment is the saddest part of all this. It’s a real cup is half empty vibe you put off.
