DeTars Do Truckee

We went on a mini vacay with the DeTars up to the family cabin in Truckee...no, there was NO snow and yes, Little Guy is convinced he saw a bear.  The unusually warm weather made it quite toasty in the warm snow gear we brought up, but we did hit up the snow park for a few hours of sledding and I am pretty sure Little Guy is in love!  The first time we went he made friends with Izzy and she helped him master the moving carpet, the second time he was flying solo and getting crazy with tricks that included ducking his head inside his tube the whole time...CRAZY I tell you.  Little Guy also acquired a fishing pole and tackle box from Grandma and Papa and Mr. Wyatt Bear left Cabella's with a brand new dog ball.  The fishing pole was instantly put to use with no luck, but while down at the lake, Little Guy came eye to ear with a bear and lucky for him Uncle Luke was right behind the tree waiting with a stick to show him to scare away bears...this little gag may have backfired...Little Guy went to bed worried a bear was lurking outside the cabin and the first thing he said when he woke up was about the bear!  Aside from the beautiful weather and wild animal "sightings", we got to snuggle baby Patrick for three days- I am not ashamed to say I hogged as much baby snuggle time as I could.  We hit up the casino and arcade ( everyone would have been better off staying in the arcade, it was a rough run!), and played many rounds of Heads Up.  It was a great little getaway, until next time Tahoe.
