Tahoe Bound

We had wanted to check out these little hike in cabins before kids however never made it until now. Due to traffic we got there with little daylight and a lot of hauling and walking to do. Sasha made it with a smattering of complaints but not too bad while I carried Noah the 1/2 mile to the cabin. Luckily after our 1st trip in we saw they had a wheel barrel so Alex took that back to the car and loaded up the various kid gear while I got the kids ready for bed. It was a beautiful spot and overall we had a good time. The first night though Noah did not sleep well which means none of us did...but the second night I can only blame the mosquitos.

The best day was spent at a beautiful beach, however we forgot our camera that day, called Nevada Beach. We hadn't been to that side of the Lake before but would definitely head there again. We set up our sun tent and spent about 5 hrs. at the beach. Noah even took a nap in the shade and it was really relaxing. We had bought Sasha a donut shaped float that she spent hours bobbing in the water just watching the planes, parasailers and other kids play. Luckily it was hot so we didn't mind taking turns hanging around in the big blue lake.

That evening we cooked dinner and played around the cabin in the woods. It was all fun and games until the mosquitos ate us alive. We all got bites and they kept us up all night. It was AWFUL!! So the next day we were all a bit grumpy and I just wanted to head home. Trying to salvage the day we went to another beach and hung around before heading home. Alex drove and we all slept...he is a trooper and we all went to bed before 8 pm that night.

Here are some pictures of the trip:
