So Amy says I need to update my blog....I've been meaning to but apparently reading about our home improvement success is no longer interesting! So here ya go Amy!
On Friday Eric called in "sick" and we spent a really fun day in Tahoe and Reno. Eric hardly ever takes time off work, in fact he has like 3 months of vacation time accrued. I guess that is one of the cons of enjoying your job so much, you never take your time off. So this was a treat for all of us. We headed up to Tahoe in the morning and went for a little hike up to Eagle Falls. We actually planned to hike up to Eagle Lake which is about a mile farther up, but we quickly canned that idea once we got started up there! Back in the good old days, Eric and I would run that hike (up hill the entire way there!) Makes me laugh how much has changed since then! So instead of hiking we decided to take a little dip! We hadn't planned on going swimming but Eric found a great little pool at the bottom of some smaller falls to put our feet in. No one was there, but once we got in and were having so much fun, other people found our little secret way to get in and before long all the other hikers (and their dogs!) were joining us for a impromptu swim!

The water was COLD!!!
Nate decided it would be much more fun without clothes! He tried taking the underwear off to, but we had to maintain a little modesty!
This pretty much sums up how much fun we had!After we got dried off, we headed around the Lake and up to Reno. I had some work files to drop off and afterwards decided to go to dinner at Claim Jumper. By this time Nate was a little dehydrated so we took our dinner to go and enjoyed a nice quiet evening at home. I love days like this!
