North Lake Tahoe!

For Jeanie's birthday (11th) Dale took her riding at Northstar-At-Lake Tahoe for the day. You can check it out here-www.northstarattahoe.com. Oldma rode up with them so she could watch the boys while Dale and Jeanie were riding. Makenna, Howie and I drove up as well and met up with Oldma, Gage & Ashton. We had a great time! When we got there the boys were roller skating.. Gage really wanted me to put on some skates so I could, "Show him my skills." HAHA! He's so funny.

Gage did really well on his rollerskates!

Ashton had a mini-meltdown and didn't want to rollerskate anymore. Which was perfectly fine with Makenna!

After Gage was done rollerskating we took the gondola up the mountain to go hiking! The gondola was a little nerve racking for me but not for everyone else. I think I just figured out that I am not a fan of heights!

We made it up to the tippity top and it was time to explore and enjoy the scenery! The kids were prepared with their "much needed" walking sticks. :)

It was really dry out and the rocks and dirt were pretty unstable... poor Ashton slipped and fell on his toosh, hurting his leg. He had to show Aunt Kristine the damage. Should we amputate? The gang... minus Oldma & I.

We stopped for a little snack and Gageman had Makenna cracking up. She sure loves, loves, loves her cousins!

Our hike went fairly quick.. It was such a nice day! Time to go back down the gondola to meet with Dale & Jeanie, head back to the house and celebrate Jeanie's birthday!
