What's summer without a few days spent digging your toes into the glorious sand of Tahoe!?
Our first trip to this grand lake was with the Esquibel girls and it was the perfect kickoff!
(why do we not come up here more!?)
It's pure joy! So much so, we decided to go again! This time we brought along Grandma Lauper for some crawdaddy fishing!
The sweet smile of success!
(a slice of salami from some fellow hunters was a major bonus!)
Our second trip to Tahoe was glorious, so we headed up the very next day with the Durling and Munson gangs for yet another day basking in the sun!
Grandma Lauper did some serious floaty pulling! I do not share her love for the freezing cold Tahoe water, so the girls were thrilled to have a water willing friend!
Harts and Ava have the same taste in swimsuits and a lot of other things...being as sweet and sassy as possible is at the top of the list! These two girls have a deep love for each other and it really is the cutest thing to hear Ava say "Huart-Ley!"
Check out that dork in the lifeguard chair your not suppose to climb up on! Here's the story...Ciera parked us right next to this giant ladder chair that taunted me the whole day through (I really thought it'd be fun to sit way up there!) So after calling me a wimp and watching the lifeguard head the other way, she threw some shoes up there for me to go rescue, snapped a quick photo, and I jumped down feeling really rebellious! Like I said, check out the DORK!
SQUIRT! GOTCHA!
I had to include this picture of us lugging all our beach goods up the sandy hill because Harts insisted on toting her dolphin the whole way and I think it took us a good 20 minutes to make it to the car! (It's also the reason my sweet Mom ordered me a beach buggy for next year! Thanks! I promise to take more than 3 lousy Tahoe trips so we can really try it out!)
