Boston....well, how about Lake Tahoe?

About 4 months ago we purchased plane tickets to Boston and also bought 2 tickets to two Red Sox/Yankees games. We were so excited about our little getaway to a city we both have always wanted to visit. Hays was beside himself about getting to go to those baseball games. Well, it didn't quite happen. We were supposed to fly out the day hurricane Irene made land fall in New York City and Boston. Needless to say, our flights were cancelled and we wouldn't get there until later that week.

We were already packed and in Memphis to drop Olivia off when we found out our flights were cancelled.  We decided to take the credit we had from those flights and still go somewhere since Olivia was going to be taken care of for the week. So in about 2 hours on the day before we were to leave we chose a destination, booked flights and made reservations at a resort. Let me remind you, we are BIG planners and always have our trips booked way ahead of time. We picked a fantastic place to vacation and had a great baby moon!

California is THE place to visit in late summer. There were no crowds and the weather was absolutely perfect (although we were not packed for it). We hiked, took a sunset kayak tour, got massages, biked, rafted down a river, napped by the pool, went to a bluegrass festival, slept late and the list goes on and on. We had such a great time, maybe Boston will happen next year, maybe....

How could you miss Boston when you are looking at this?







We even had a free night to play scrabble by the fire. Yes, we are dorks!

Who sits by one of these in late August? I guess Californians.

We sure did miss this cutie! I think she loves her Neno more than her momma now.:)
