Family builds snow gorilla to catch Ellen's eye

Posted: Updated:
WOODVILLE, Ohio -

A Woodville family made good use of the recent snow by building a snow gorilla.

Dad Danny Ivy said it was good family fun. "I wanted to spend time with the kids and come out here. They sat around, and they molded, this is the creature they helped me come up with."

They gave their creation a sign reading "Happy New Year Ellen Degeneres."

The family is a big fan of the show and submitted a photo of their creation in hopes of getting on air.
