My daughter turns 8 today. Love having a daughter. Photo taken in May.

Killing time while son uses the restroom.

I'm soooooo mad at myself for this.

Santa Monica sunset...

Daytime fun in Santa Monica...

Damn dog ate part of the Mercedes. Damage from this plus other things so much money...

@Austguy And you probably thought I was joking about the light saber!

@manplaid After zumba & pilates.

@Sally_K Terrible tick season. Cannot take our dog to local regional park. Think she's comfortable at home...

@pobutler YES!! Strange how that works. She ruined a new tube we got for our pool too yesterday. And how could we not love her?

EXPENSIVE trip to Costco!! What did I buy?

Heat wave hitting here on Friday, but 60 & pouring now. Very unusual for California.

Hanging out in this cove on a boat. Rough day:)

Now.... Tahoe Keys

Approaching beautiful Emerald Bay while on the water... -->

View from Tahoe Keys area while taking short hike... -->

Sharing some photos from South Lake Tahoe... View from where we are staying -->

When I got my new dog, none of you told me she'd be on my lap for road trips. She's about 50 lbs too.

Thought it was sweet daughter made this picture for me this morning.

Full representation of summertime pool side.
