Trip to Lake Tahoe!

We decided to take ONE last family vacation before the new baby joins the family. Steve's sister Emily and her husband Russ were kind enough to let us come to visit. They live only minutes from Lake Tahoe. It was such a fun trip. Emily was so great... she took us to 2 amazing beaches where we played all day, fed us delicious food, and is an overall wonderful host! Thanks Emily.
Here we are at Emerald Bay! It was a perfect day. We took some pictures of the view and then hiked down to an Old Victorian Castle built in the late 1800's. It was a mile down to the water and a mile back up, but being 8 months + pregnant, it felt more like 5 miles up. We made it though! The kids were troopers too!

This is the house we were able to tour. It was really neat inside.

Lake Tahoe is an amazingly beautiful place. The kids had a great time playing on the beach with their cousins! The water was crystal clear and cold!!! I have more pictures of the beach days to come!!!

I've always wanted to go to Tahoe--you still look amazing. I can't wait to meet the next baby Lundwall--you make 'em so cute.

We have been to Emerald Bay but we have not hiked down to the castle. We will have to do that. You sure look cute PG. We are sure excited for the baby to arrive. I just love newborns, they are so soft and cuddly.
