Wishes for Tahoe

by Sarah

I haven’t written for a long time, but here I am with Maisie on my lap blowing bubbles at me and I am writing. What has prompted me to write after more than a year? The short answer is pride and jealousy.

Pride in the Hanna Andersson snow suits I found for the kids at a great price. Jealousy of the fact that we are not at Tahoe enjoying the snow. I’ve gone to Tahoe every year since I was 4 and the past 5 years we have gone with Brad’s Stanford buddies–they are there this weekend.

So here are a couple pics of the adorable snowsuits and the extreme lack of snow in Sunnyvale. As you can see Maisie is broken hearted over the lack of snow.

    Hey we just got some snow last night though it mostly melted off today. What happened to your plans for this year?

    Hi Sweet Sarah!
    I can send you some snow from Michigan! I’m sick of it!
    Love,

    We couldn’t go to Tahoe this year because of cutbacks. It has actually been kinda fun to cut out the obviously “extra” spending from our budget. I know the fun will stop when we have to start cutting things that don’t feel very extra. Actually, it has made life so simple. We go to the park and the library for entertainment instead of taking music, dance, swimming or soccer. We have more play dates. We don’t go out to dinner and I am forced to do what I profess to love, cook. I know it will be hard when summer comes and I can’t get the girls matching dresses from Hanna or God forbid Gymbo have a to-die-for-cute line. But my life will go on. :o) There is always the hope of next summer.
