Winter Carnival Fun

Went to the St. Paul Winter Carnival...haven't been there since Tristan was like 2 years old. Brrrrrr...armed with several layers of clothes, earmuffs and Uggs, we braved the cold and checked out the Torchlight Parade....














After the parade we walked toward Rice Park where the ice sculptures were supposed to be...





But they had been there for a week with some 30 degree days and had melted quite a bit....





Oh well. Just when I thought I was so cold my nose was gonna fall off, we found the Hotdish Tent and went inside. There was some wine tasting going on, as well as Tater Tot Hotdish and Chili for sale. Yum...I'm gonna make this hotdish soon...the recipe is on the winter carnival web site.


All in all, it was a fun time. Check it out some time.
