Tahoe or bust....

We have been blessed with some amazing friends whose amazing parents own an amazing home in Tahoe. We've had the privilege of an invitation to this house a handful of times in the winter, but this past weekend, we got to go and do the summer thing. And in the words of Emma, "being here in the summer is WAY better than coming in the winter when it's cold and snowy and all you can do is sled." So there you have it!

The highlight of the weekend according to Emma and Grady: going on the "motor boat." Seriously, I don't think I've ever seen Emma so happy. And once Grady stopped crying inconsolably because his dad fell off the tube in the "really really deep end" of Lake Tahoe, he ended up loving it too! Landon took a nap.



The highlight of the weekend according to the grownups was rafting the Truckee river. 4 adults, 5 kids, a big raft, perfect weather...... it was so. much. fun!



We also swam in Donner Lake,

and just loved spending some quality time with our friends. Thanks for having us Dowd family!
