Tahoe fun
Well??  Did you all get good loot from Santa? We just got back from Tahoe last night.  No snow when we got there, but it did finally snow in the evening of Christmas day and through the night so we got to play in the snow on Monday.  We went to a cross country ski place that has a sledding hill and you can rent saucers.  We rented 3 saucers and used Emeline's new sled and had a ball!!!  The hill was long and steep and FAST!  We stayed over to the less crazy side with Emeline, but Sean and Al and Kristen (and me once) ventured up to the tippy-top and went swirling down on the saucers.  Emeline's first run she went down with her daddy from the tippy-top and he didn't want to go to fast so he kept his feet out in front of them...unfortunately he kicked up snow into her face and she did not like that, I came down after them in a saucer and
she was crying (poor chickadee).  After that she was fine though, we used hands to slow down (of course her mom was the best sledder of the bunch after years of experience in the Parentlea Farm Winter Olympics) so there were no more wet snowy faces!  She even went on the saucer a few times and really liked that too...especially with her daddy as he tended to end up going backwards more than frontwards!  She thought that was pretty funny!  We had a rainy drive back home yesterday. And Emeline is already ready to go back to Tahoe.

Seems like you guys had a blast! Personally I hate winter sports (I'm a coldaphobic), but even I would have enjoyed saucering down the hill at Tahoe, too!

That sounds like so much fun! I really enjoyed reading about your fun in the snow! We had a warm Christmas in Colorado although we had a little a few weeks ago.
