Lake Tahoe

 We had another fabulous vacation to Lake Tahoe this year.  The Smiths are always such wonderful hosts. We were a little worried because there was rain forecast all week, but it turned out great and only rained a couple times.  Amanda had a great matrix set up for us.  We went on a hike, to the bmx track, had a fun day of jet skis and kayaks at Sand Harbour, had a carnival, had a picnic and played at Donnor beach, and Amanda borrowed bikes for the adults and Danny and Rachel babysat while the adults went mountain biking. The Clarks went home on Sunday and we stayed 2 more days.  We went to the bmx track again and went to Sand Harbour again with just our family and rented a stand up paddle board and did lots more crawdad fishing and Amanda took our family pictures at a great spot she knows.







 Ruby and Aaron made a boundary all around the area we claimed on the beach.


 Danny's method of catching crawdads was to get them on the shovel and fling them to the sand.  I caught one mid-flight in this shot of cute kids on a rock.






 Such a fun group!

 The kids brought back their crawdads and Amanda cooked them up for the kids. Danny and Rachel loved it!
 Amanda set up a super fun carnival where the kids earned dollars for playing fun games.
