Headed to the Sierras and camped at one of our favorite places, Fallen Leaf Lake. It was much colder that we are used to. Hard to think it is the middle of June and we barely hit the high 60's on Saturday. Could have lived with out the wind as well, but we all survived and had a great time. We had a bear come through the campsite on Friday night, stealing Uncle Kerry's peanut butter and jelly. He also held Auntie Heather hostage in her tent for 2 hours.....she REALLY had to pee!! He threw a few plastic tubs but otherwise didn't make too big of a mess. We went to our favorite fishing pond, but it was super windy and appeared to have not been stocked yet...alas, no fish this year. We then headed over to the lake (Kerry had never seen Lake Tahoe before) and surprisingly it was a bit less windy and a bit warmer. The kids spent the entire time in the freezing water, building a sand castle and burying their legs in the sand. The cold water never seems to phase them!

Brrrrr....
To keep from getting crumbs all over her clothes, I told Kaitlyn to lean over a little....she took it a bit too far :)
Staying warm by the fire.

Still a lot of snow on the mountain.
