Lake Tahoe Part 2
Shirts by Jon - OF COURSE!!
Our true selves emerge:
Chattin with Em:
The boys before their nightly Crawdad trap setting. Yes, they are posers. No, it was not coordinated.
Kaya (aka mini Seth), Tevai (aka mini Dave), Grace (aka mini Jon), Eva (aka mini Libbs): best buds.
Ok "babes", here is our Girls Night Out picture. THANK YOU husbands for it. We know the price you paid (which was high).
Cousins playing Ants on a Log or something.
Yes, more posers. Getting ready to jump off the rock. The initiatory rite of passage.
Look at my honey fly!
Phid and Collin.
Even more posing . . . anything to stay warm!! (Em, Collin, Garrett, Jon, Joz - in stealth mode, Phid and Seeth)
Air Guitar?
Jon and the third or fourth chair he broke (they were cheap, ok?)
Gathering to see Collin get rid of the mop:
Jon playing barber and Mullet fun:
Ta DA!! My baby boy is back!
Last night of fun. A bowl of popcorn that MIGHT be big enough for all the Bybees - adults that is.

Tahoe Part One
Can y'all say "BEAUTY! . . . JOY! . . .LOVE"
Backing up though, on our 9 hour journey to get to the lake, some sort of alien invaded Collin and he turned into a snarling, growling, crying, writhing, kicking ball of meanness, then he threw up and was his happy loving self. It was so weird! In the first one he's growling, "NO PICTURES!" The second is taken about 5 minutes later.
CAMP BYBEE!! Yes, every one of those tents and cars is ours.
Collin, aka PYRO BOY building one of several mini bonfires while his best pal Cora watches. And one (of many) of Howard's beauty naps.
Doing what we love to do most - siting around the fire, eating and chatting.
The older generation passing on the very valuable S'mores making skills.
I love this picture . . . too bad I never got one of Howard being Death at night in that hoodie!!
So, um . . . let's just say it was FREEZING at night. I slept with 5-6 layers a hat and hoodie at night, and still froze.
Good ol' Garrett - the kids favorite uncle giving Grace a ride (yes, he has swimming trunks on) in Baby Bumper - the one Jon and his brothers played in when they were young. And Collin chopping wood - he could have done that till his arms came out of the sockets!
The kids all drawing. They had SO much fun together!
The Bybee boys (Yes, we claim you as a Bybee Garret!) chewin' the fat while cookin' their fat. Yes, that is bacon wrapped around their sticks. They bought it for "catching crawdads". Uh-huh.
Jon frying up lamb on our night to cook.
Stay tuned!! We're only half way through!

Birthday Fun
We had a great day yesterday! The kids got a day off school and I agree with Grace when she said that Jon shouldn't have to work on his birthday. I asked Collin what he wanted to do for his birthday and without hesitation he said, "RA!". That's my sushi lovin' boy! Ok, he's more Jon's sushi lovin' boy, but I like it too. Collin went there with some scout leaders months ago and he's been talking about it ever since.
We heard all about the "upside down mushroom lights"
AND most of all, the crunchy spicy tuna. It seems it was a little more spicy than he remembered!
Jon was glad to have any excuse to eat sushi! Sorry for the not-so-great pics. Someone, who shall remain anonymous, would NOT let me use a flash.
A sushi lovin' Midge. She has decided she wants to go to RA for her birthday too.
The real aftermath (minus a few plates!!). Thank goodness for Happy Hour!
Singing Happy Birthday - Bybee style and chocolate divine - of course!!
