For the first week in August we headed up to Lake Tahoe for some time in the Mountains with the kids and friends. Once we arrived we headed over a block to Liam's friend Lucas' cabin. His parents made us burgers and the kids played. The big excitement was we saw a bear! The bear wandered by the house and then got chased into a tree by a dog.
The next morning we headed up to Cascade Falls for a hike with friends. It was a great hike and the kids did well. It was fun to explore the falls.
That afternoon, Elsa went bike boarding with Maya and Liam and I played at the lake.
The next day started with a Treetop Adventure. The kids were fearless. I was overwhelmed by some of the courses.
That afternoon we played at the beach by our cabin. The kids dug a big hole and had fun jumping off the dock.
The next morning we headed out for a float down the Truckee River. It was super fun activity with Lucas' family. In the middle of the float we switched it up to have a girls boat and a boys boat.

That late afternoon Arne took the kids to get pizza and play mini-golf.
It was a great trip and I felt like the mountain air and time with friends made it really feel like summer!
