Ojai

Last week the girls and I went with my dad to Ojai for some R & R. (Ojai is 30 min from Santa Barbara). I found a steal on an incredible resort.... so we jumped on the opportunity.

We spent an afternoon on the beach searching for shells, making sandcastles...

Flying kites...

Playing...

This is the resort- it was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. When we got to the room they had cookies and milk for the girls... a stuffed horse and toys for Emilie? 3 pools, organic gardens, soccer fields, full golf course, spa, gorgeous views... it was nice to spend 3 days where the rich and famous live.

some of the organic gardens...

"meditation" tables....

a very happy girl

And another one...

We ate breakfast on the backside patio every morning facing the southern california foothills... it was relaxing to say the least...

Swimming with grandpa!

Hanging out at the Santa Barbara Zoo. The anteater was our favorite!


Love vacations!

(and- we picked up our furniture!! We ordered it from a place in So Cal b/c some friends of ours let us in on the secret to some cheap furniture. Overall, I am really happy with it- of course it's not perfect, but I can't complain b/c of how cheap it was...)

Mother's Day

I woke up, and this is what I saw:

Very very adorable!

And this is what they fed me in the morning. Ohhh yum.

Then my favorite dinner later on....

What a wonderful mother's day!
