VACATION!! Ski Trip - January 2010

Last month, Greg & I went to South Lake Tahoe with the Edgemons. Laura & I were college roommates, and I'm so thankful we have remained friends through the years. Brock stayed with my parents in Arlington while we were gone - 4 nights (he did great!!)! It was a much-needed vacation for all of us, and I'm thrilled we got to get away before the newest addition to our family arrives! It snowed pretty much every day we were there - it was gorgeous (and cold)! I was about 20 weeks along in my pregnancy and feeling great!

While there, they experienced the largest snow storm since 1982, so we were lucky enough to endure it with them. ha! We even had to get chains for the minivan's tires - this was after much sliding! Yikes! Below is a picture of the guys reading the directions that came with the chains...

The guys did such a geat job. :)

I didn't ski, but I enjoyed spending the days reading, going to the gym, shopping, etc. Greg & I had a whole day together - walking around town, catching a movie, gammbling and just hanging out with each other. So nice! Matt, Laura & Greg had a good time skiing and got to see the awesome views from the mountains! See the lake in the background?

Lake Tahoe is a great place to go - we had fun at the casinos & did pretty well I must add. Below are a couple of pictures taken at the Hard Rock Cafe (in one of the casinos).

This is the only pic of the 4 of us - just hanging out in the condo, about to devour our Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory apples. YUMMY! Oh, and while on our trip, we all discovered Linda's Lollies (www.lindaslollies.com). We loved them so much that we placed a bulk order of them when we got home. ha! I know it sounds funny, but they are really that good! Our favorite flavor is Pina Colada. :)
