Chico - Lake Tahoe (10/21)

Off to Chico, California for lunch at the Sierra Nevada Brewery and Restaurant.

Follow that Penguin (otherwise known as "The Honey Badger").

I'm definitely asking Matt to make me a Pumpkin Tree next year for the living room. :)

Crazy looking Mushroom Pumpkins

Now THAT'S a pumpkin! Looking forward to see what gets carved into this beast. 

All hail the Pumpkin King! 

The Pumpkin King with his loyal subjects.

Me with my little monsters. Matt forgot to get the bigfoot prints in the picture. Oh Matt.

There's the bigFEET

Bradley - master artist!

Like father ...

.... like son.

Happy lil couple. :)

She doesn't get out much. 

Awww... me and "Ze". I'm sure no one would believe my stories of our sibling rivalries. Our classics include being pushed through screen doors and forks in thighs. And that was just this past Saturday.

Love these guys. It's a shame we didn't spend more time with them but I was thrilled we got to visit. Bradley and Taylor are two of the most fun and respectful little guys you would want to meet. They were a blast to spend time with and I wish they lived closer so I could spoil them rotten get to know them better. Elton and Ashley are doing a fantastic job raising them, kudos to you guys! These kids are living proof that you can raise children to steer clear from CRAP food, be respectful and tolerable to others and not waste away in front of the television. Couldn't be prouder of this family. :)

Extreme window shopping ... coming to a town near YOU!

And back EAST we go! 

Next stop, Lake Tahoe, California.

We are staying at the "Base Camp" hotel. A new quirky little hiker friendly place. Very cozy! Took some photos that were demanding to be shared:

"Like"

"Worst Case Scenario" book was found in place of your typical bible. GENIUS!

Snow adventures tomorrow ....
