Reno/Lake Tahoe June Vacation

Happy Birthday to Me, Jon and Fiona!!!!
Below are pictures from our vacation.

Fiona's first time in the pool. She wasn't too happy. I think there were too many kids. but she looked dang cute in her swimsuit!

Fiona's new car seat with her blanket and book...makes a happy baby.

I am so spoiled by Jons' hotel that I totally spaced it that a casino resort would not have a fridge. So we brought a ton of food in a cooler and had to keep it in the cooler and keep refilling it with ice the whole time. I made spaghetti and meatballs especially for the trip. So on Sunday we were in the mood for it but couldn't think of where or how to warm it up. At church we met the sister missionaries so we called them to see if we could use their microwave. They said we couldn't because they weren't at home but that the church had a microwave. Since I was the only only who could get dressed back in my church clothes I was the one to go back inside with spaghetti and meatballs to warm it up. I also needed plates and forks...so embarrassing. Jon. mom and Fi waited in the car. I went in, found the kitchen and there were a ton of ladies in there prepping food for something. So I hurried as much as I could. Then went back to the SUV and we ate in the car. Below is the Church that saved us and let us enjoy spaghetti and meatballs :)

 This was South Lake at Zephyr Cove. It was freakin cold and so we stayed like 20 mins then drove to Emerald Bay.

 This is Emerald Bay. Pictures don't do it justice. It was absolutely beautiful.

 The Reno Temple. It was dang windy so we didn't walk around.

 Fi's crib in the hotel. 

 North Lake and a cute Cafe. This is where Fiona choked on a fry and scared the crap out of us and the other people there.

 Fiona in Truckee, CA. Her 1st pair of shoes!

 Fi's first time on a beach and in the sand. She hated it, just like she hates grass...what a weird little girl.

 Jon taking a selfie to help keep me awake as we drove home.

We had a fun trip, but it did not feel like a vacation. We had a lot of insights (more on that later) and enjoyed the scenery. We can't wait to go back later this year to enjoy all we missed due to lack of funds and my messed up back!!
