A Wigginton Family Tradition

Every year the Wigginton family takes a week off and travels to Lake Tahoe...a tradition that Jim, Talmage and I gladly joined this year! We were there for four days and it was so relaxing and beautiful. I just love Tahoe water. It's so cold and refreshing it takes your breath away.

We took the gondola to the top of Squaw Valley and hiked around. It was beautiful, but unfortunately Talmage got his first nose bleed. This poor kid! I looked down and he had smeared blood all over his face. I won't lie...I freaked out! But fortunately there was a doctor on deck (AKA--Papa) and we got Talmage fixed up (and me calmed down) in no time.

Everyone enjoyed hanging out with the kid. We honestly LOVE living near family. So cute that he stayed asleep while his dear Auntie ate!


We toured this old home called Vikingsholm. So beautiful. A woman named Laura Knight had it built in the 1920's and it was done so well that they have done virtually nothing to restore it. It was a very family friendly activity which Talmage and his parents greatly enjoyed!


And of course, we all enjoyed the crisp water. It was so fun to see Talmage's face when his feet touched the water. He absolutely LOVED it. And he was so interested in the sand between his toes. I love when he discovers new things. Anyway, it was a great week!
