Tahoe/ Idaho part one

Yay! It is finally vacation time! I am actually going to be dating all of my vacation entries on the day they occured. I think it iwill be easier for me to look back on them and create my photobook or scrapbook. So, all of these entries are actually written on August 12 or later, but happened on the date posted.

Day one was a travel day. When you have young kids, a travel day doesn't really count as a day of vacation. At least, that is what I think. We packed the car on Friday night, and were aiming to leave early Saturday morning. Our plan of attack was borrowing the DVD player from my Dad and playing movies for Hannah and turning Claire's car seat around for the first time. I figured she would be excited to be able to see the world. She was well over the weight and age limit, but I had been putting off turning her because they are now saying it is safer to keep them rear-facing for as long as possible.


We left Clovis around 8:00 am. Stopped in Merced for breakfast at Sonic. Stopped in Sacramento at Arden Fair to walk around and have lunch at Fresh Choice. And finally arrived in Tahoe around 4:00pm.
