I’ve got my toes in the water,
ass in the sand.
Not a worry in the world,
a cold beer in my hand.
Life is good today,
life is good today.

Love. Now I want to go to Lake Tahoe even more. Great collages of the kids. Reminds me that I need to make sure to always put watermark copyright info on my photos from now on!

Yes, you do. It will at least make it harder for people to steal your pics.
The last picture is the best.
Julie recently posted..He’s a big kid now! #iPPP
It’s my favorite way to see the kids.
I have never been to Lake Tahoe, but I have family that goes every year and they swear it is the most amazing vacation spot.

Seriously.
Nothing better than a fun, active day and then crashing at night.

It’s a good song, especially when you are sitting on the beach listening to it.
Nice. I need to get my ass back to Tahoe! Enjoy.
