Mini-Vaca to Lake Tahoe

We stayed up at Tahoe back in February. We love to sit in the hot tubs with the snow falling. It gets pretty hot in there so the boys thought it would be fun to go cool down in the snow.

There is some major steam in there but through it all there are three very handsome boys sitting with me.

Here is Cody being grumpy for some reason.

And obviously Cody was still grumpy and wouldn't get in this picture. We love having Tahoe so close. It is beautiful up there. Maybe one of these times Nate and I could go alone and do some snowboarding this winter. That would be a blast.

Jelly Belly

I'm not sure how many times we've been here but we did go there back in February. It's so close to my parents house we decided to take the kids there again. So here are a few pictures. It was a Sunday and the lines were not running and it was a bit boring. I think Dylan was sleeping so my parents just watched him for us. The best part was the free Jelly Bellies at the end.

Cody Lost His 1st Tooth!

So of course, as always, I post things extremely late. Cody lost his first tooth back in February. It was pretty loose so I mentioned an idea that was done by some close friends of ours, the Broughs.

We tied some thread around his tooth......

Next, we tied it to Nolan's R.C. car.....

And here is the video yanking it out.

And here is one excited boy!! By the way he still hasn't put it under his pillow. I hope he isn't saving his all up like Nolan is. Crazy kids!!

Pinewood Derby

So by now everyone knows how horrible I am at posting. I'm so busy I hardly keep up on my emails. Well let's go back in the past, say 5 months ago. That was Nolan's pinewood derby and I was called to be Cub Scout Committee Chair.....yeah me! Why not, I already have three boys what's 15 more? So here is his car. It was given the name Most Fire Power. It was pretty fast but not fast enough. He took fourth.

I have many videos of his races but I decided to use the first one. Sorry the footage is sideways...I turned my camera and didn't think about the affects of that later. Oh well! Nolan's car is on the right (black). This derby was a lot of fun!!
