Tahoe on the 4th

So we decided to venture to South Lake Tahoe for the fabulous fireworks show set to music. We enjoyed it so much 3 years ago that we thought it would be fun to come back. Last time we came we encountered some horrible traffic on the way home. So this year we decided to camp there over night. When we first got there we set up camp at the Tahoe Valley Campgrounds and waited for the Gowdy's to show. After they got there Addie was pale and started vomiting. Poor thing :-( Not a good start for them. After the clean up we grabbed a few sandwiches and headed down to the beach to get a good spot for the show. We enjoyed a beautiful sunset over the lake while Addie and Rylee played in the sand.Rylee loved the fireworks! "Pretty fio-woks!" She was so excited with each new ball of fire that hit the sky; she would cover her mouth in awe.This is Rylee doing her "cheese" face for the camera. What a ham..or "One Eyed Willie"!Brody never fails to amaze us with his easy going disposition!It was still a long ride back to our camp but faster than it would have been if we went home. The next morning we packed everything up and headed out for a big breakfast at Harvey's Casino. There were a few bumps along the way during the trip but all in all it turned out well...well, at least we thought so. :-)
