Lake Tahoe

We drove up to Tahoe for Greg and Audrey's wedding. But the trip became so much more. It was an amazing adventure and one i can't wait to do again. The drive took about 12 hours and Aiden did AMAZING. He was awake almost the entire ride and slept for maybe 2 hours.


After we checked in we found a perfect spot for the Twister to get his wiggles out. A park on the beach. Aiden kept calling the Lake the "ocean" and after trying to correct him a million times we just let him. We enjoyed the snow capped mountains in the background of an amazingly beautiful lake and let Aiden play on the slide, monkey bars and swings.
The next day we decided to take a hike to some castle (sorry i don't remember the name.) It was the first time we were going to try out the back pack Addy let us borrow. Aiden loved it!!!! Not quite sure daddy did though. The castle was very interesting and the stories the tour guide shared were captivating. Aiden seemed to really enjoy himself as did Jimmy, me, Barbara and Mando.



Our final day in Tahoe we sent to an old mining town, Virginia City. We had a good time looking at the history and walking through the touristy little shops. But the definate highlight of the trip was seeing Aiden's excitement as he got to ride his very first real live Choo Choo Train. It was pretty cool because the diesel engine was broken and we got to see the steam engine work. They say the steam engine only comes out once or twice a year. Aiden had the hole train singing his "All Aboard" song from preschool. He was in ahh of the "Thomas the Train"






P.S. More on the wedding to follow..>I need to go pick up Aiden.
