Lake Tahoe & 4th of July

Pin It

I know I am only a few weeks behind, but better late than never right?  Right.

Over the fourth of July weekend we headed to the Lake Tahoe area and spent the weekend with Michaela's family....we ate lots of food, hung out on the sunny patio with a lovely view, road the ATV and had a few mini photo shoots.  Fireworks, even more food, hiking and a trip to see beautiful Lake Tahoe made the weekend one of the best ever. We loved getting to see another gorgeous area of the country.  I think Lake Tahoe might be one of the prettiest places in the U.S. and that is saying a lot because over the last two years I have been to a lot of places! Here are some of my favorite pictures from the drive over where we stopped to dip our feet (and in Bella's case, her whole body) in a little creek, the weekend in Graegle and our drive through Tahoe!



Bella crawling onto m y neck to avoid getting anywhere near the water
I like to tease her...and watch her do her cute "paddling" when she sees water.  She has done this since she was a baby!
someone slipped and fell IN the water! uh-oh!
