Labor Day...Bike Ride & Lake Tahoe

This year for Labor Day we took the kids and their bikes up to Lake Tahoe and went on the bike trail to Nevada Beach. It's about a mile ride each way. When we got to the beach the kids (and Brent) couldn't resist and ended up in the water. We stayed there for about 2 hours and then rode the bikes back up the trail. It was such a fun and relaxing day. Complete with OREO cookies on the way back!Stopping for a picture on our bike ride.

And a crazy one!

Kaylee Nicoles first cookie. Papa Telford would be so proud that it was an OREO! And Grandma Telford would be so proud that we had water to go with it! (No milk available on this trip.)

Braden trying to eat his OREO and ride his bike at the same time.

Brookie enjoying her OREO.

I know I talk about missing Idaho alot but I do love the home and life we have here in Nevada. You definitely won't see a gorgeous lake and beach front like this on the farm in Idaho!Four happy kidos after a fun time at the beach.

Braden and Daddy.

Brooke burying Jessie in the sand. Always a favorite at the beach.

Kaylee Nicole getting closer and closer to the water.And in she went.

Daddy....save me!

Such a precious picture...prior to the soaking wet clothes and stripping down to the diaper so she could really play in the water.

Jessie taking the plunge all at once into Lake Tahoe. This lake is COLD!!! Jessie is one brave..or crazy..girl! Just like her daddy. And again...and again...and again! Guaranteed there were no pictures of Brooke or Mommy doing this!

Braden playing in the water. He is somewhere between Brooke and Jessie. He really WANTS to take the plunge like Jessie and Daddy, but I'm telling you ...it is COLD. Eventually he winds up all the way in. It just takes him a while.

Brookie is totally content to just play in the sand and get just the bottoms of her feet wet.
