So glad we got pictures or else it didn’t happen

Dear vacation, you are missed

I just wanted to get tacos the entire time

June’s over? Julying!

Just trying to avoid the present by living in the past

Wait, can I go back? I think I left my happiness behind

I’m good at living in the moment, but better at reliving this moment

Sorry can’t come to the phone right now, living in the past

Them: Take a picture, it’ll last longer Me: Say no more
