Lake Tahoe Fiesta on the Dock

Last weekend I was with family on the East shore of Lake Tahoe {where I grew up} celebrating my Dad’s 70th birthday. For the special occasion, we had a small fiesta style supper on the dock. The décor was kept simple, yet colorful. Here are some images from the event:

  7. Cristin,
    Happy Birthday to your dad!!! When I turn 70, that's exactly how I'd want to celebrate! Margis, guac and chips, looking out over the water with those I love.
    Wow - beautifully and joyfully done!
