This weekend we went to Santa Barbara for my future brother-in-law’s graduation from UCSB.
But first, we made a quick stop in Santa Monica.
 |
| We stayed at this beautiful hotel |
 |
||
| And got to meet this precious little one. My new cousin! She is the most smiley little thing. Such a happy tiny. |
Then off to Santa Barbara…
 |
| Where we did a little wine tasting in Santa Ynez. Highly recommend it! |
 |
| Saw these gorgeous mysterious flowers everywhere. I love. What are they?? You can’t really tell from this picture, but they’re HUGE. |
 |
| So here’s the thing, I don’t like cats. Always been more of a dog person. Then I met this little one, (the stray outside of the house we rented in SB) and I fell in love. He was such a precious little lover. I threatened to take him home with me all weekend. But sadly, the severely allergic fiance won the battle and the kitty stayed in SB. |
And if you haven’t entered my Stella + Dot earring giveaway you can do it here! Hope you had a great weekend!!
Looks like a wonderful time! I love Santa Monica & SB. Just did a lilwine tasting myslef in the Santa Ynez valley a little over a month ago

I’ve always wanted to do wine tasting! How awesome are those flowers?!
So jealous of your wine tasting, and that hotel looked amazing! Such a cute little nugget baby, too!
Looks amazing! And the flowers are unreal!
It looks like you had a gorgeous trip- I’ve never been to SM or SB but they both look magical…and those flowers, insane!! xo

Yeah, I have to say I am not a cat lover myself (I have some *wicked* allergies), but I swear the things *ADORE* me and always come straight to me! Anywho…that looks like the perfect little weekend jaunt! Especially the little one…loves the cute little cheeks!
Your trip looks like it was AMAZ! First of all, the wine tasting in Santa Ynez sounds like a fabulous time – the photo is GORGEOUS! And those flowers? No clue what they are, but I love them! Your new little cousin is so presh – what’s her name?!?!? Little ones make me so happy! So glad you had a great trip =) xoxo
I love SB. Went up there 2x while I was in LA last month. Used to live there! I went to UCSB
Such a great little town.
On our recent vacation to LA we took a detour to SB and the Santa Ynez valley… LOVED it and the wine was delicious!! Looks like a fabulous weekend!
Love Santa Ynez!!! There are some really great wineries out there…did you happen to make it to Kalyra? Glad you enjoyed your weekend! xoxoxo brynn
Absolutely love Santa Barbara (and not just because I am a UCSB grad like your future bro-in-law (Go Gauchos!)). Glad you had a nice time!
