McCall Weekend

25 January 2011
My friend Kristin organized a fun little getaway this past weekend. Her husband plays ice hockey so when she found out he was having a tournament in McCall, she invited us and one other couple to join them and go in together on a little cabin. We only stayed 2 nights, but it was a blast. Lots of snow with blue skies, yummy food, hot tubs, hot cocoa, late nights, fun games, good company, good laughs & beautiful scenery...


Brigham's Ice Hockey Game Friday night


Cameron & Hollie Kuehne

Eric entertaining us with an impressive showing in our Minute to Win It challenge. This game is called "Junk in the Trunk", and the goal is to "shake" 8 ping pong balls out of that box strapped to your back/bum in 60 seconds.

Hollie showing us how it's done with "Stack Attack". (She had to stack and take down 36 cups in 1 min)


On Saturday all of us kind of did our own thing during the day b/c Brigham had a couple of hockey games, Eric and I were scoping out cabins for our family reunion this summer and Hollie & Cameron went snowboarding.

Lovely day in McCall...

I picture Santa's elves living in a place like this :)


So much snow, the roof of this van was caving in

Oh yum. Can't go to McCall without getting one of these from the Pancake House. And only $3! That thing fed 4 of us.

A few random moments from the past couple months...

My brother, Cortland, with 16 y/o daughter Cami & 10 y/o daughter Faith.
Just a Sunday at home. Believe it or not, this wasn't staged! Although, they did have to freeze their "natural pose" while I ran to get my camera.



"And here we have Idaho..."


Eric, squeezing comfortably into Women's snow pants.


Ice Festival - McCall, Idaho


Note the space between their bums and the sled.


Future ladies man.
Poor Braden. This was right after he crashed HARD but was being very brave.





The biggest cinnamon roll EVER. From the Pancake House in McCall. That's almost a whole cube of butter! And an icing moat.


And these last 2 pix are for Amy & Gregor...


We finally got to use our Chandler's gift card last night! And thank goodness b/c that place was spendy! But nice, and the food was delicious. You know it's a fancy restaurant when the WAITRESS gives you a long-stemmed rose after the meal.

We were celebrating 2 things - Valentine's and (near) homeownership. Our closing date is March 5. We can't wait. I haven't gotten much sleep in the past few days.
