Snowbound!

This weekend we went up to Tahoe with our friends Kim, Nathan and their 3 month old daughter Molly and Will and Kim. 6 adults, 2 babies and 6 dogs in a 2 bedroom cabin -- pretty crowded! :) But, we're having a great time. It's been very relaxing to get away for the weekend and just hang out with our friends.

Jon's been sick unfortunately so Saturday I hit the slopes with Nathan and Will while he spent time with Logan. We only boarded a half day, but it was a blast and I did pretty well, all things considered! I was definitely sore afterwards, but half of that soreness was feeling muscles that haven't been exercised in quite awhile (about 10 months?). ;-) Today I took it easy at the cabin with Logan and everyone else, Jon got his fill of football, and I even got a small hike in with the dogs (you can imagine the heaven Odin was in, running thru the woods and burrowing through the snow!) It's also been our first time back to Tahoe since the fires last summer -- it's sad and shocking what damage was done :( but also neat to see all the new homes being rebuilt around us.

At any rate, it felt GREAT to get out of the house and spend some time outdoors. And, the days have been gorgeous - beautiful sunny California weather, clear blue skies and just a tad bit brisk but not too cold. What more can you ask for?

(Just in time too. As I type, a storm has come in and it's windy and snowing outside. Maybe we'll get snowed in so we have to stay longer. mwahahahahahaa)
