I am singing and dancing right now. Well…in my head. I would need more coffee to actually sing and dance. Tomorrow morning we are all packing it up and heading to Tahoe for some fun in the snow. It’s been a while since we have had any snow, and if the Facebook pictures of my friends are correct, it will be an awesome weekend. I am praying for no bears this time though. That gets a little nerve-racking. The last time I was in Tahoe I was climbing hills and getting electrocuted. I am thinking of a more relaxing weekend this time. Sledding downhill and sipping wine. Not at the same time though. Umm…could it be done at the same time?
