California Dreamin'

Our trip to Cali...



Most people go to California for the sunny warm weather. Not us. Immediately we head up to Lake Tahoe for some snow tubin'! You've never seen mountains until you've been to the Sierra Nevadas. Gorgeous. I grew up learning to snow and water ski there. Some of my fondest childhood memories are there. So we decided to take Lola. Granted it was almost 60 degrees while we were snow tubin' but that just proves California has the best of both worlds. We spent some time with my best friend (I've known her since we were 2yrs old), her kids and her squeeze. I miss her so much.

We also met up with some friends (who also live on the East Coast) in San Francisco. Seemed a bit strange to travel 3000+ miles to meet up with friends that live a 5 hr drive away. But we had fun! Hopefully John and Joey will come for a visit to Virginia soon.

Nana Rose was just home from the hospital so she couldn't come with us on all of our California adventures but we did get to spend lots of time with her. Lola laid in bed with her and read her stories, played tic-tac-toe, and told her all about what she does in Virginia to keep herself busy. Hopefully Nana Rose will come and visit us soon too! We miss her lots.

I love that you can slow the Anitmoto slideshows down now. Finally, I can watch them without feeling like I'm going to have a seizure LOL! Tim and I both enjoyed watching that! Again, we'll have to make sure we meet up next time you are in town! Thanks for sharing.
