Lake Tahoe

We had a Wilson family reunion during the last week of July and had a great time.  Not everyone could come but we were glad to get together with those who could make it and missed the ones who couldn't.  Here are a few photos:
On our drive down, we went through Lassen National Park and the scenery was spectacular!  They had just opened the road 12 days before we went through so there was lots of snow!

After arriving at Tahoe, we ate dinner and then had a fun campfire program celebrating Mom W's 80th birthday.

To show how great the zoom is on this little camera, here is a picture from the rim of the lake to a castle called Vikingsholm -and the next picture from the same spot only zoomed in.

One day we took a hike to Cascade Falls - a beautiful hike of about 2 miles each way.  The view was worth it.  Here's Marcie T crossing a bit of a large stone field, and then the falls themselves.

Scott enjoying time with Avalon and Marcie with Ben - both children of our niece and her husband.

Even Grammy had some free time to enjoy reading a book!

We all took turns cooking a meal; John really looked the part!!

One day we played "minute to win it" games and had a blast:)  Keeping balloons in the air, the elephant walk, shaking your bootie to get ping pong balls out of a box tied behind, stacking dice on a tongue depressor, carrying pop cans with a spagetti, and putting a cookie on your forehead and try to get it into your mouth just by wiggling your face!  Marcie T and Brady did great, Scott T not so well except to show off his dental work!

On the way home, we stopped at our favorite place in Rice Hill, Oregon!

Thanks Wilson crew for a fabulous time!!
