Reno/Tahoe Thanksgiving Visit

Another whirlwind trip to Reno for Thanksgiving and we did our best to cram everything in.  The first day we made a trip up to Lake Tahoe and swung by our favorite eatery T's for some tasty tacos.

Thanksgiving day my mom made a delicious assortment of the usual fair.  All the ladies stepped in to help with the cooking, and the boys did what manly things were available.

Mariah & Ali make cooking look cute.

Ben puts the dishes away like a man.

Gigi distracts Dax so mommy can eat a yummy meal.

Thanks to Gigi's offer to babysit the next day, Zach and I managed a backcountry ski.  It was a beautiful warm Tahoe day.  The snow was lacking and crusty but it didn't stop us from having a good time.

Didn't get a picture in with Papa Bob and our dinner/football watching but it was great to see him and catch up!  Looking forward to our next visit with him.

It was another wonderful Thanksgiving and we are so grateful for our loving family and friends for all that they do.

It was such a great Thanksgiving. We missed all of the family that couldn't join us, but felt so blessed to have your family and Ali and Mariah home for our favorite holiday. Lots of fun playing and keeping Dax. He's such a happy guy! oxox
