Sunday, 17 May

It was a very early morning, was up late last night - didn't go to sleep until 2:00 am (last minute packing) and we were ready and out the door by 4:00 am. Not a lot of sleep. Got on the road and we were at the parking garage by 4:30. Got to the airport and to the gate before 5:00. Had some coffee and a muffin - Olivia was wide awake and was pretty excited. Kurt was exhausted... he didn't go to sleep at all - he had to work the night before so as soon as he got home, he got showered and that's when we left. Met up with Tracy, Shon, Hudson and Ivy and we were on the plane and ready to fly out before 5:45. The first flight (to Houston, TX) was about 3
hours longs. It was a nice flight, Olivia slept for most of it. The second flight was a little rough, Olivia had to sit on our lap for the 3 1/2 hour flight to Sacramento. It was rough, Olivia was up and wanted to play. She did really good though, such a good girl. We got into Sacramento, got our rental car - a nice big minivan. Got it loaded and then drove the 2 hours to Lake Tahoe. It was a pretty easy drive, but we were pretty much driving up (over 6500 feet altitude). Olivia had a rough time, not sure what caused it but she broke out in hives and it lasted for the entire trip. Her eczema got bad too, not sure if what because of the altitude or the drier air. So got to the resort, it was so beautiful. Met up with my brother and Nikki and he drove us to our building. Stunning building. We got to meet our niece Jocelyn (so adorable), such a beautiful little girl. We got a tour of the resort then Tracy and I took the kids to the pool while Kurt and Shon went to the store. After that, we came back to the Condo and ate dinner (Kurt cooked - such a good guy). We ate, hung out, played some cards and made it an early night (We were all so tired).
