Okay....so Lake Tahoe has seriously become one of my new favorite places! We had to go there for a weekend chiropractic conference and it ended up turning into a perfect getaway! In our 11 years of marriage we have never gone away together without the kids....NEVER! Well we've gone away just overnight in town but I don't think that really counts. It was exactly what we needed and was a wonderful trip.
We were staying at this village resort tucked back up in the mountains at the base of the ski slopes. It was beautiful and we couldn't get enough of the cool weather...in the mornings it was 39 degrees...so refreshing:) We left the windows open all night and woke up to a chilly room...so nice!
We woke up early each morning to take advantage of the outdoors and get some exercise. I wanted to hike up the mountain and I was quickly reminded that we over 6000 elevation. I was totally sucking wind and thought I was going to drop over. But we kept going and we ended up running the last bit up. Dave got there before me and was cheering me on....I guess you could say that was my biggest loser moment.
After our 3 days of classes with the other doctors, we went sailing out on Lake Tahoe on this HUGE boat. It was so awesome and so beautiful on the water. I could have sat there in total silence with the wind in my hair all day!
We had such a great trip and it made me realize how important little trips like this are with your spouse. We came home happy....refreshed.....and renewed! Then it was back to our crazy chaotic life at the office on Monday......sigh. Tahoe is already calling me back and I hope we can get back there soon:) Oh ya and I changed my hair just a bit, it was time to get back to my roots.
