Our last night in LA was Noah first night in the top bunk. Progress.

After a quick breakfast we reluctantly made our way to the airport for the long flight back to NYC.

It was a great trip, and great to see everyone. Thanks to Mark and Sara for being such great hosts.

Waking up the second day at Snow Summit. We found a great cabin to rent for a couple days and everyone got real comfortable.

Noah on the “magic carpet”.

130224_1076

No big deal.

130224_1083

Distracted.

Later, after swooping up Eli from school, we went skating.

We had some girls hanging out at the skatepark with us too, no big deal.
