Fun at Squaw Valley

We got a great deal with Deal Chicken for a family of four at Squaw valley: riding the Gondola and swimming at hight camp.
Left the house at 8 or so, arrived at Squaw Valley at 9:30.
Took the Gondola up to high camp.  Got to do some hiking around the ski areas, then enjoyed the swimming pool.
Went down to the valley and had lunch.  Then went up the Gondola again and played in the pool some more.  There happened to be a pool party in the afternoon, so lots of music.  The kids really loved that..go to do lots of dancing in the pool!!

Kara-cavities

Kara had 2 cavities in her back baby teeth, so she had to go in and get them fixed.  She needs to brush better!!!  Peter was cleared. 
The dentist gave her a little nitrous oxide before treating her cavities.  side note: Nitrous Oxide/Oxygen is a blend of two gases that is administered to the child by a pleasantly scented (strawberry, orange…) nose mask. It is a very mild sedative inhaled by the child through nasal breathing.  She remained fully conscious during the treatment.

Such a chatterbug

I believe the two red spot in the back indicate the teeth
