SNOW!!

Taylor asked if we were going to visit the snow this year so we took him to Tahoe a few weeks ago. Yes, one of those weekends when the news reports were telling everyone to STAY OFF THE ROADS to Tahoe. Well, we got the memo but had a beautiful house waiting for us, a fun weekend planned and our friend David insisting that we'll be fine in his all wheel drive BMW X5. OK, let's go for it.

Well, long story short, instead of a 3 1/2 hour trip, it took 5 hours due to closing the road, traffic backing up and a snowstorm to slow everyone down. Good part is that we made it safely and had a blast of a weekend.

ICICLES!! BIG ONES!!

Before Taylor took his one hour private lesson, David was a great teacher too,

teaching some of the basics. Taylor was a good student!

After the lesson, David took Taylor to the hill! First time down was tough, but Tay did it again and came down SMILING! Loving it! BLUE SKIES and sunshine, we were loving it too!!

The next day everyone went sledding! It was soooooo much fun!! On the last two runs, Taylor wanted to 'race' with me. I won both times and Taylor wasn't too happy about it. This picture was taken after I won and Tay is TRYING to smile. hahaaha...I still like the pic!

The house we stayed in was awesome and we hope to go again, taking the entire family next time. I know Amy, Andrew, Erika and Kaelyn would love it. Just have to have the right vehicle and make sure the roads are clear.
