Especially if this is your backyard?!
These are pictures of the homes Mark's family owns in Lake Tahoe. They have a cabin, where Mark's aunt lives, and a custom home built by Mark's uncle, which he and his family lives in. We stayed with Mark's uncle and Mark's cousin, Jason, and J's family stayed in the cabin. Jason has four kids! Whew! They are busy! But it was perfect for my munchkins, they couldn't have been happier.
Our days there were filled with fun, relaxation, food, drink, a little bit of gambling, and tons of good times. We can't wait to go back!
First Day on the Beach. I have never seen a beach like this! We were surrounded by gorgeous pine trees, with soft, sandy beaches and crystal clear waters. Really amazing!
Mark and his cousin Jason at the Cal-Neva Casino. Jason was standing on the California side and Mark was standing on the Nevada side.
Oh Ella . . .
Second Beach Day . . .
Grandpa's here! The kids adore Grandpa Yori and they had the best time playing with him and he is so patient and loving towards them. We had a great day on the beach!
Welcome to High Sierra Gardens . . .
This is Mark's Uncle and Aunt's business. They have a beautiful nursery, florist and gift shop and landscaping business. It was such a treat to see the shop and all the beautiful things they grow and design.
Look at my kids flying! We headed up to North Star, a ski resort in Tahoe. They have some little boutiques, a roller rink, restaurants and a bungee trampoline jump that the kids wanted to do. The resort was so-so, but the kids had a great time soaring through the air! Ella was more hopping, than soaring, but I love the picture with her little legs and toes pointed - she reminds me of a little Pixie Fairy! Love that girl!
We had a great time playing miniature golf . . . a first for the Yori kids. Ella gave up after two holes, but Karsten did so well! Just like his Daddy!
Last day of swimming. This is Ellie (Mark's cousin, Jason's, little girl) catching crawdads and Karsten warily watching.
Back in Reno
Mark's family has a deep history in the city of Reno . . . their family has a street named after them, a city park and an apartment complex!! Mark's dad took us down Yori street so we could see it for ourselves! Check it out!
