Tahoe
After church on Sunday while still in the parking lot, Daddy turned to mommy and said, "Let's go to Tahoe. Now. Like today. Let's just pack a bag and go. I have tomorrow off, and it will be a while before we get a chance to do anything like this again." We waited for it - mom's practical side forcing the "No." But it didn't come. She thought for a minute and then said, "you do the dishes, I'll pack a bag." And we were off. Off to snow and sledding.
Much better.

I am so proud of y'all! Way to go, definitely worth it and something you'll remember for a long time. Keep pushing them this way Lydia ;)
Great choice, mom! These pictures are fantastic!
That is great! I miss the snow!
WHA-HA-HUT?! This is like winter wonderland! No way you were calculating pennies THIS time! Seriously? Glad you took the plunge! We've almost been doing that lately, but alas, here we are...still in PA.

Awesome! Question is...did you see my sister? You need to be in touch with her if you're in Tahoe...you know she lives in Truckee!
