Memorial Day fun!

For Memorial Day this year I decided to take the kids up to South Lake Tahoe with Grandma Stacy. Mark had to work the whole day and Grandpa wasn't feeling well that day so it was just me and Grandma and the kids. Grandma really wanted to go to check out our campsites that we'll be camping at in July and I wasn't so sure about the long drive up and how the kids would do but I didn't want to stay home and do nothing... And who doesn't love just being in South Lake Tahoe at this time of year!? Surprisingly the kids did great and we had a really fun time just enjoying the beautiful weather and gorgeous scenery of Lake Tahoe! We drove up to Grandma and Grandpa's house the night before so that helped cut up the long drive. The kids did great and loved playing on the beach, going on little nature walks and hikes and just spending fun time with Grandma! Thanks so much Grandma for a fun day!! It was well worth the drive!!




Madelyn didn't like the sand. She sort of freaked out when we took her socks off and set her down.


Smart Grandma brought bubbles and balls for the kids to play with!


This was a little underwater viewing place that we had to walk on a little trail for a while before we found it. The kids were pretty tired by the time we found it but they did enjoy seeing the cool fish under water.


Luckily there were benches to rest on along the way! They were little troopers! We probably walked a couple miles the whole day!

And to top off the day we had to stop at the little ice cream shop and reward ourselves with a "little" treat! This was actually called a "single scoop"!! and the kids were "kids scoops"!! WOW! YUM! Thanks Grandma!!


Exhausted after a long day! They fell asleep in a matter of minutes once we got in the car to drive home. Thanks so much Grandma for going with us and making our Memorial Day one to remember!! We are so blessed to live in such a nice area and only a drive away from beautiful Lake Tahoe! It truly is one of the most gorgeous places on this earth!!
