Tahoe...on the road again!

Whew....we're back home again! After getting home from New York, we slept in our beds for two nights and then headed up to Tahoe! Our friends Jen and Zippy were going to be up there so we decided we needed to go too. We had so much fun and are glad that we decided not to stay home. (I convinced Brian that the condo was like our second home so really, it wasn't like being away at all!)

On Saturday the Colato's came over the mountain to visit with all of us. The kids had a great time playing and the adults had a good time chatting away. The babies are catching up to Andrew quickly, they are mobile now and interested in his toys as well. We are working on learning to share!

Daddies and Babies

Saturday evening, Jane and Zephy (Zippy's mom and sister) volunteered to watch the babies so we could have some adult time. We ventured up to the village and then over to the hot tub. At the village, the boys met Mr. Gordon from Gordon Biersch. We asked the boys if they wanted a picture and their response was: is it blog worthy? Oh yes boys, everything is blog worthy!!

Poor Grevin seems to have a problem with socks. I don't know what the socks ever did to him but he HATES to keep them on. Jen was scared that his little toes were going to get cold in Tahoe so she decided she had to do the best thing for her son and buy him some man tights. (OK, they weren't really man tights but I'm trying to make it sound a little less girlie!)

Grevin was too embarrassed to show his face to the camera!

Jane and Zephy spoiled us again and watched the babies on Sunday while we skied. The weather was fantastic and it felt great to get out on the mountain.

After a day of skiing, the boys wanted to get their turn on the snow!

Thanks so much to Jane and Zephy for watching the boys. We really appreciate it! Also, thanks to Oma for letting us use the condo. We wouldn't be able to enjoy this sport without you! This trip really made us all stop and think about how lucky we are to have such amazing and supporting family. Thanks everyone! :)

Wish we could have stayed longer but J's little cough wouldn't stop! We missed some good fun!

Like always, we had so much fun hanging out with all of you! And I couldn't stop laughing at the picture of Grevin with your explanation of the situation. My sides STILL hurt from laughing so hard!
