Winter Break Cont...

We got to get out of town for a couple of days over our winter break and we headed to Lake Tahoe.  We stayed in Truckee and went skiing at Squaw Valley.  The week before they had huge snow storms up there but we got lucky and had sunny skies but the benefit of all the snow from the previous week.  Perfect!  We had a great couple of days skiing.

Here we are at the top of a run - Lake Tahoe in the background.

 I'm not sure of the significance of this big chair up there but Becky (my sister) has taken pictures on it (most of you have seen in on her Facebook) so we figured we'd better as well - it is pretty cool after all.

 The kiddos and the dog.

 Roxy loves the snow.  She can play in it as long as you'll let her.  It is adorable watching her run around in it - she chases the boys around happy as can be.  After all she's just a kid herself!

 Cooper decided to give snowboarding a try.  We hunted him down in his lesson and got some pictures and video.  He loves it!  Says he is never skiing again.

 Cameron in the village.

 We took a tram over to find Cooper's lesson and his class got on as we were headed back to the village.  I got this adorable shot of him loading.

 OK...so I said it was sunny, I didn't say it was warm.  This was as we were pulling into ski on the first morning.  Thank goodness we had our hand warmers!

We love Tahoe.  It was a great mini-vacation.  We hope to be able to head up one more time this season.  Let it snow!
