Tahoe

We feel so lucky we were able to get away for a few days over the kids winter break. We took Cameron & Cooper on their first ski trip to Tahoe. It was amazing up there. There was snow on & off the first day of skiing which made for some great powder and the true effect for the boys to experience. They both took to skiing great. Cameron was even able to go on the green runs with us on the big chair lift. Cooper is still mastering his "pizza" stop, but would ride the magic carpet lift all by himself and ski down to us. It is adorable watching them go. We all had a blast - it had been 8 years since Eddie & I had been and we quickly remembered why we love it so much.

Here's to 2010

Yeah, ski school is expensive but aside from them learning the proper techniques, mom & dad get some skiing in - just the two of us

Warming up after hours of skiing

This shot is so beautiful. It was taken on the way down the hill back to our hotel from skiing. I don't know why it is loading sideways. I tried it a million times and have given up. I still wanted you to see it though...it was amazing.

We found this cool park to play in.

The untouched snow, they had a ball running through it

We also found these snowman friends
An igloo we found on the way home from dinner. We had to turnaround to go play in it. It was really cool!
There is no doubt about it...Tahoe is beautiful. We'd love to make it back once more this season.

This looks like so much fun and that sideways picture is so beautiful...the colors are amazing. I love the igloo too but just seeing how happy snow makes us feel and look is worth so much. You guys look like you were having a great day. I wonder if I can still ski? It's been a long time for me. I guess it's like riding a bike...you know once you learn...blah blah.
Love you all,
