Award-winning ice sculptor T. Jay Maclaskey and his wife, Carol, open their doors to the public yearly, inviting carloads of families to attend their ranch and the festival known as The Ice Cutter's Christmas. They take kids on jingle bell hayrides across the 40 rolling acres to see sights such as a 109-year-old barn, known as the Fire and Ice Hall, bedecked in lights and light sculptures of holiday scenes in the woods. Inside, their extensive freezers house a glittering collection of ice sculptures created by the owner, and visitors can watch as he carves a brand new one before their eyes. Storytellers spin holiday tales and visitors sing Christmas carols as mini horses, goats, and Ziggy the llama jostle to be petted and fed. Finally, staffers put a button on each evening with a big chilly showdown known as the Great Texas Snowball Battle.

Pins quiver at the threat of a well-rolled ball as bowling rages across 300 Bowl’s family friendly lanes, which are available for open-bowl sessions during all business hours. The recently remodeled alley greets bowlers with $500,000 worth of upgraded equipment and facilities as pin busters slip into a stylish pair of bowling shoes to cool off heated rivalries over the course of three games. An automated scoring system tallies each felled pin, leaving patrons free to munch popcorn and soda, hurl heavy objects at neatly arranged knick-knacks, and quietly reflect on complicated arithmetic’s forced obsolescence. Themed events spice up the stone hurling, turning up the tunes during Friday and Saturday Rock & Bowl nights and celebrating togetherness during Sunday Family Fun Time.
