Praying for snow

We had been praying for snow in hopes of spending our long President's Day weekend in Lake Tahoe. Although it hasn't snowed much up there so far this winter we heard the skiing was good so we packed up the car and headed to Tahoe.

We found a little patch here and there on the side of the road. Here we were playing in a park we always go to when we are there.

We found these awesome snowmen
best thing was we didn't have to build them...those suckers are hard to make
we had to stop for a beer
Here we are at that same park. If you remember any of our previous Tahoe posts we always take pictures here. Usually the snow is all the way to the end of the pier. The scary thing is we are usually out there on it. Little did we know we were walking on water.
Another park we played at. Roxy loved Tahoe. She ran so fast through the snow it was adorable.
Here is Cameron catching some air on the slopes
Cooper catching air. These kids are pretty darn good skiers!

This was so cool for me, the Starbucks lover. Squaw has the first ski through Starbucks on the top of the mountain. Here are the kids & I ordering some pumpkin bread. It's pretty crazy seeing people skiing with their coffee...

Heading to the lodge/ice arena at the top of Squaw Valley
We put the kids in ski school and had a few hours of "grown up" skiing. It was a nice having time to ski together and sneak to the lodge for a bloody mary. I love these huge outdoor fire pits you can chill around. I made Eddie pose for me. We had a great relaxing weekend. We love it up there.
