I can't believe August is already over. That means that Summer is winding down. While I am grateful for some cooler days, I just love beach days even more. I am hoping we can still get a few beach days in Tahoe during September and possibly October. Fingers crossed. Anyways, we have a long weekend and I am looking forward to it. We have our first home football game tonight and then camping.

Onto Friday Favorites and Happenings.

ONE. When we were recently at Scheels, I was browsing boots and I came across the cutest pair for Fall/Winter. I didn't buy them, but they have been on my mind ever since. How cute are these? I am hoping a sale comes around that I can get at least a little money off of these.

TWO. This week, American Eagle had a sale going on and you all know how much I love their jeans, so I scooped up another pair (for $23) and a super soft long sleeve tee (for $17). And now they have another sale going on. You can get 25% - 60% off right now.

I have bought many jeans. Expensive jeans to cheap jeans and for some reason, these jeans are just the best. I have had them for over a year now and I LOVE them. They are in amazing condition and they are always on sale.

THREE. Last weekend we went to our favorite Summer place...Lake Tahoe. If you read my blog last week then you saw that we were not able to go to Sand Harbor for the day because the parking lot was full by 9 am. Well this time, we got there at 8:30, got right in and got a prime beach spot. We probably could have come a bit later, but we wanted to make sure we got in.

It was a beautiful day. It was in the 80s and we spent over 5 glorious hours there. And the girls didn't get fussy when we were going to leave. Usually we leave too late and they are grumpy and in need of a nap. Well they weren't grumpy and promptly fell asleep once we were driving home.

Seriously, if you have never been to Lake Tahoe, you need to add it to your bucket list. It is the best lake in America.




This is a local brewery here in Nevada and this beer is amazing!

FOUR. The girls started dance class again and I snapped this cute photo. It is hard to see my girls since they are the furthest from me. But look at how cute they are!

FIVE. Funnies for the week.

Have a great weekend!

    1. Oh I bet she is super excited. We buy them locally, but I have bought a few pairs from Target that don't last. Here are the ones that I buy on amazon (https://amzn.to/2MT8QAL). I hadn't been in a long time until last year when my coworker recommended the jeans. Now I buy all the jeans there. Have a great weekend as well!
