04: California Edition

Childhood rooms. Solo car rides. Family. Dry air. Too many smoothies. Birks everyday. Salt water. Eucalyptus. Pale skin turned pink. Learning to be independent amidst dependency. 
Beach foliage.
Quintessential. 
Mexican dress by the poolside.
 Purple Bougainvillea.
 A little SLO home.
 The fantasy land that is Santa Barbara.
Biologists friend perks.
Courthouse.
Adobe. Jacaranda. Bougainvillea. 
Smoothie. Birks. Old flannel that was my moms. 
Sunburn.
One must pass through the Shire...
 ...to arrive in Neverland. 

Big Sur.
Hours of bliss.
Best friend concert meet ups. 
I was not cool enough to be here. And I swear I saw James Franco. 
A great place to wake up to. 
 Unreal.
Cappuccino and a scone. 
 Beach time with my family. 
 Goodbye for now. 

04

Days of birth for many. Early bloomers. Weekend getaways. Becoming water sport people. 
Somehow I turned 24.
Then 4 days later this stud turned 24 as well.
We took a weekend getaway to celebrate another year of life for the both of us. 
 It was super fancy and decadent. 
Room View
 Detour hikes on the way home
In love with this man. 
This little dude turned 3!
The blossoms were not shy.
Neither were the lilacs, although I wish they would stay around longer
Our dream of being kayak owners was finally realized.  Thank you to tax returns, birthdays being close together, wedding presents, and good deals.
