McCall Winter Carnival 2012

We went up to the Winter Carnival in McCall, Idaho with Peter's sister Jessica and her family the last weekend in January. One of the main attractions of the Carnival, besides the beer, of course, is that a lot of the businesses make snow sculptures. Some of them are really amazing. We had a good time going around and guessing which ones would win prizes even though none of us were very close at all to what the judges thought.



 These dinosaurs were incredible and so huge. They won the grand prize.
Buzz won "Most Photogenic". I think he should have gotten something better.

We also had a lot of fun just hanging out with the Bairds. We played a lot of games and went sledding a few times, too. Carolyn really loved the sledding, Megan liked it as long as she wasn't cold and Sarah just liked being there, watching the action from the sideline. Here are a couple funny videos we got.

 Another highlight is the Pancake House where they give you absurd amounts of awesome food. We had to get a plate sized pancake, but the crepes were the best!


I can't believe I didn't get any pictures of Jessica and baby Paul, but they were there, too! Better luck next year, I guess. We are excited to keep this tradition going!
