We headed up to McCall this weekend for the Winter Carnival. It is a family tradition to go up there in Jan/Feb each year and freeze to death while we look at ice sculptures, we love it!! This year we met the Beath family up there (and nearly drove them crazy with our big bunch I'm sure) and hung out with them. We ate dinner at the Toll Station, breakfast at the Pancake House, did some swimming in the hotel pool and went up to the activity barn to go down hill tubing. Kids and adults alike had a great time!
It was hilarious to watch the chains they would make by attaching their tubes to each other and hear the screams of delight as they came thundering down the hill. They were all laughing too hard, not to mention pulling the tubes to the hill (except for my little girl who seemed to con everyone into giving her a ride while they pulled her up) to get cold and then we were all awarded with hot chocolate afterwards. While my 3rd little guy was riding down a slide in one of the ice sculptures, the Idaho Press Tribune took his picture as well as a statement from me, so he may be in the paper today who knows. The trip was definitely a must do again next year!!!!

That sounds so fun. We haven't been up there yet but we keep hearing how fun it is.
Wow that looks so fun. I miss the snow sometimes.
How fun for you guys. It looks like you all had a great time.
That looks like fun. I didn't know such a thing existed.
Next year we have got to do that together, what fun. I am so glad that you had a good weekend with the family.
