SNOW in TAHOE!!

I am behind on my blogging, but hey, I am behind on just about everything right now, so at least I am being consistent! Some really good friends of ours invited us to spend the weekend in Tahoe this past February and we took them up on it. We had a great time but we were a tad disappointed that it was raining when we got there Friday afternoon but by late Sat. night and early Sunday morning, mother nature delivered and the kids made the most of it! We had a great time sledding, throwing snowballs, making snowmen, and watching Maya experience snow for the second time in her life. She did not know what to think about that white stuff falling from the sky, but she quickly caught on that it was a good thing. Eating the snow (I know, I know, snow is dirty!) was her favorite and there was a nice loud "Maya pitched" scream if you dared to even try to take it away from her!


Here are some favorites of a few of the FAB FIVE... I was on Maya duty so I need to get the rest of the pics from our friends!

Matthew nails the landing and flies down the rest of the hill....without the snow disc!



The Jakester catching some air!


Jake and his "Sad" friend--and just in case you are wondering if this is really how this little guy of ours feels? Yes it is sometimes, not being the baby anymore after seven years has been tough on him, but he is doing better everyday and the "happy" far more out weighs the "sad" these days.


In other news, we took the kids to Fort Bragg (beautiful, but SO SO SO COLD!) this past weekend so stay tuned for pictures and we just celebrated our six month gotcha day anniversary! I would have loved to say it was a huge event in our house and that I took tons of pictures, but it came and went and got a little lost with the all the school projects and activities that come with a house full of kids. I did however have it on my mind most of the day and still marvel at how far we have come. Maya is pretty much settled into her new little life and she is taking her roll as ruler of this house very seriously! We can't imagine life without her.

Looks like you guys had a blast. Only one of my children has ever seen snow. We just don't get it down here. Your kids are adorable, as usual.
