Last weekend David and I were happy to have Jeremy, Lindsey and their cute boy Devin come to visit us. For those of you that do not know these wonderful people, Jeremy is David's cousin and his best friend growing up. Lindsey is currently 8 months pregnant with their little girl, and so was quite the trooper to drive all of the way out here AND go camping with us! She definitely wins the prize for most brave!
David took Jeremy and Lindsey to Virginia City on Thursday afternoon while I was still at work. They had wanted to take Devin on the train, but unfortunately they missed it by a few minutes! I hear they still had a good time, though. That evening, they went to South Lake Tahoe to visit one of Lindsey's former college roommates, and David and I went to see Superman, Man of Steel in 3D. It was such a great movie!
|
Yup, we're the coolest people ever |
After we got home, David of course had to show Jeremy and Lindsey our 3D capable TV :)
|
We had to make them look cool |
|
Yup, Lindsey looks cool too |
The next day we decided to drive up to Reno in the morning to check out the Sierra Trading Post or something. Jeremy had seen a catalog for this store before and so was excited to check it out, but then determined that the catalog was more exciting than the store.

Blurry, but here's Devin enjoying the swinging chair |

|
Yup, we're super fly |

After that, we went home and got ready for our camping adventure! David had booked a place at Zephyr cove, but since they were overbooked, we actually got to move out to a less busy area of the camp site and spread out more, so it worked out perfectly! Here are some pictures from our night of camping :)

The next morning we cleaned every thing up and then headed over to the lake. Lake Tahoe is just so gorgeous!

We then drove back and went to the farmer's market. We bought some honey sticks, fruit and bison burgers for lunch. It was delicious.

We then went home to clean up and rest for a bit. After long naps, playing in the backyard and chatting, we finally settled on where to go to dinner and headed out.

After we got home the boys decided to play "chubby bunny" with the ginormous campfire marshmallows that we had left over.

Jeremy and Lindsey left early on Sunday morning. It was sad to see them go, but we are so grateful that they took the time to visit us. We had such a great time. Now it's our turn to start planning a trip out to see them after baby girl is born!
What a fun weekend! That's awesome that they took the time to go see you guys and Lindsey is definitely a trooper! I'm beginning to the Penny just likes to get dirty ;)
