Tahoe Times

For some reason, Blogger has cancelled out all my captions and zeroed me out on this post. Were they not witty enough I ask you?! Anyways, I've reordered the photos yet again and will make another pass at my hilarity :)

We went to Tahoe a couple weeks ago while Dan took a week off work, it was divine! The kids slept on both drives while I sat in the backseat on Pacifier Management. The weather cooperated eventually, after a kind of neat thunderstorm, and we had a relaxing vacay. Jim and Mary joined for the latter half, too, so there were extra hands on board!

The three kiddos "playing together". Nate loves hanging with his bro and sis actually. Yesterday he called Sylvie a sweetheart!!

However, the big brother in Nate is coming out. Luke, you better watch out buddy!
Nate is perfecting his pacifier skills, very key.

We went to Tahoe City and tried to evade the rain. Here's mom and her kids!

Nate has great frisbee form, impressed as I am unable to throw a frisbee myself

On the last day we hit the beach and Luke tested the waters. Yep, pretty cold.


Mary enjoying her nephew's company

Jim taking a turn with Luke. Where was Sylvie you ask? Strapped to me the whole time :)
Daddy and Nate making a run for it into the Tahoe mountains. They tubed around for a good 45 min and had a blast!



Hot tea, little boy, dappled sunlight



Nate got a new 300 piece puzzle while up in Tahoe and did it twice. Here Dad and Sylvie assist
Grandpa sneaking in some puzzle time


The minivan did well on its inaugural Tahoe trip, and the drivers seat doubled as a changing table. Ingenuity!

Looks like it was a welcome trip all around!

This makes my heart smile. Tahoe is such a magical place especially when you get a chance to relax into it. Glad it was a good one! - Annie
P.S. That grin from Nate is a little scary as Dan's younger sister...if his mischievousness is hereditary...they are in trouble. :)
