New Year's In McCall

This year for Christmas (Tim's Family) we decided instead of buying gifts we would rent a cabin in McCall and spend New Year's together. It was a blast. We stayed in a really nice cabin called the "Fairway Chalet", and it was big enough that the kids were the only ones that didn't have a bed to sleep on. We spent 3 days snowmobiling, sledding, ice skating, playing games, taking pictures and so much more. There were only a couple of minor injuries - Tim crashed into a snow bank on his sled and cut his nose and Jace fell down the stairs in the cabin - but considering all of the activities that we participated in, we did pretty good.



This must have been a "tame" neighborhood fox because he hung out by our cabin the whole time. This picture is through the front window when one night as we were playing games at the dining table, we looked up and saw him watching us from the front deck. The guys had a blast feeding it and taking pictures - it would eat the food out of their hands.





And for those of you (pretty much just my family) that said I would never be able to ice skate, here is the proof. I only went around 3 times, and yes it did hurt my ankles, but I did it and I didn't fall. The kids did it too, but Jace was very upset because "Ice skating is REALLY HARD" and his skates gave him blisters, and Paityn just quit when Jace did.
