Even though we just spent a long weekend in Jenner, we decided we needed to get away and spent 5 days in Tahoe City. It was absolutely gorgeous. I mean, the lake, the house we rented, the weather, it was all gorgeous.
We rented a house just north of Tahoe City. The house had access to a private beach, which we took full advantage of. We were there in the middle of the week so we pretty much had the beach to ourselves. Rare for us who usually go to the coast to enjoy some beach time which is normally packed full of people, regardless of the day of the week.

Ella had received a kite as a present the week prior to our vacation, and boy did she have fun flying it on the beach. It only took one time of her letting go with it in the air to figure out not to do that. Luckily it hadn't gotten too high yet and I was able to chase it down the beach. She had a blast and was flying it all by herself in no time.
We invited my parents up to enjoy the house with us and spend some time with the girls, which the girls LOVED. And Dan and I managed to get another bike ride in. I was pretty scared when we left that i wasn't going to make it far because of the altitude, but we made it all the way to Squaw and back, 18 miles round trip. Not too bad, I say!
The house was perfect for us, it was HUGE. It had four bedrooms, three bathrooms, an amazing kitchen with TWO dishwashers (who knew what a luxury that is??), a play area filled with toys, books and puzzles in the loft, and a landscaped backyard. What more could we ask? Oh yeah, I know, WHEN CAN WE COME BACK?
