Owen absolutely loved the skiing! It was so fun to watch him! We also got a lot of fun time hanging out together playing games and watching Christmas movies. :) We also had fun celebrating my birthday all weekend--even though it isn't until Monday. :) We are hoping this will be the first of many years celebrating my birthday weekend at Tahoe--we had such a great time!
 |
| As soon as we got there these guys got in their snow gear to head out on the mountain! Levi and I took naps! |
 |
| I wasn't feeling too great the first day there (both boys had a stomach bug earlier in the week) so Joey took the boys shopping in Truckee while I rested some more and they came back with presents for my birthday! A new mug for my collection! |
 |
| The boys were so excited to help me open presents! Owen couldn't help but tell me what was inside! |
 |
| New snow shoes! |
 |
| Jenga by the fire--so fun! |
 |
| The boys loved sleeping in the same "bed" both nights! |
 |
| We woke up to two feet of new snow on the mountain and close to a foot at the Village. We loved staying right in the heart of the Village. Coffee, sushi and ski lifts just downstairs! |
 |
| Levi got a season pass this year too--free under 5! We called him grumpy pants all weekend for refusing to smile for his picture. |
 |
| Headed to the Gondola which was literally downstairs from our place |
 |
| I'm the only one in the family without a season pass--so I took a different route to the top via the Ritz Gondola. It was SUCH a beautiful morning walk I couldn't help but take a picture on my way! |
 |
| I found them! When I asked the guy at the Ritz if I could take the trail down to the magic carpet (in my new snowshoes!) he said he'd just drive me down in his mini snow plow. I guess being 35 weeks pregnant has it's advantages! |
 |
| Season pass or not, this guy refused to put his skis on this trip |
 |
| Someone is excited to ski! |
 |
| Doesn't the sky look fake?! The whole scene looks fake--it was so beautiful! |
 |
| Joey sent Owen off on his own while he and Levi stayed up top to watch! |
 |
| Joey taught him how to break the day before and he did so great at slowing himself down! |
 |
| So much fun! |
 |
| Joey kind of did it all holding Levi and helping Owen if he needed it. I just took the pictures. :) |
 |
| Loving going out on his own! |
 |
| Taking a ski break to throw some snowballs at Daddy! |
 |
| Heading back home... |
 |
| Helping Owen around to the Gondola |
 |
| The only thing better than skiing is taking the Gondola up and down... |
 |
| Even "grumpy pants" liked it! |
 |
| Wagon rides with all the gear! The one minute ride might have been Levi's favorite part! |
 |
| Hot chocolate down by the fire |
 |
| Happy goof balls! |
 |
| Helping me get breakfast ready |
 |
| By far Levi's favorite part of the trip--the big bathtub! They took 3 hour-long baths while we were there! |
