Jet Set!

Last week Hubby and I headed to sunny Santa Barbara for a little getaway/work trip.

We looked at office space for our California office! (I didn't take the CA bar for nothin'!)

We found an adorable, newly renovated office right off of State Street (the main drag, filled with shops, shops, and more shops). Now I just have to wait for bar results to come out...

We also did some networking, caught up with old friends, and enjoyed the perfect weather!

Enjoy a few photos from our trip!

French Toast and Eggs Benedict from Jeannine's in Montecito - my favorite place for breakfast!

We perused the Farmer's Market...

I love the colors of all the fresh veggies!

Butterfly Beach is always gorgeous!

I love everything about Santa Barbara; the sounds, the smells, the people, the food, the stores! 
It really is (in my humble opinion) the most beautiful place on earth! 

We love that the Coast Village Inn offers complimentary beach cruisers! 

Cruisin' by the lagoon at the Santa Barbara Zoo!

I love walking around the harbor! 

No trip would be complete without a trip to Crush Cakes
Lemon drop for me! Red velvet for Hubby! 

I can't wait to officially open a new office in Santa Barbara! It is going to be so fun to have a jet set lifestyle, traveling back and forth! I'd better learn how to pack better, lighter, and more concise! :)

XOXO

Sunny Santa Barbara - Part 2

I have more incredible photos to share from my trip! Enjoy! If you missed Part 1 - click here!


This is a photo of Butterfly Beach! It is my other favorite beach. It is a bit quieter and fabulous for sun bathing. There is an incredible bike path/running trial overlooking the beach, which is where I took this photo from. Ty Warner (ya know -- the Beanie Babies guy?) has a huge house near this beach. 


Any Bachelor fans out there? This is the beautiful Four Seasons Biltmore Hotel -- where Sean and Catherine tied the knot!


My friend Ash and Hubby and I hiked Inspiration Point -- a 3.5 round trip hike. Not too long, but man -- we sure did climb. My calves burned for a few days after this, but it was absolutely beautiful and definitely worth this view, despite the clouds. 


We also went to the Santa Barbara Zoo, which houses so many amazing animals, including this cute guy! (He has  four other giraffe friends to romp about with!)


And no zoo is complete without a sweet elephant! (He has a friend, too!) We went on a Saturday as soon as the zoo opened. It wasn't too crowded and the animals were out and about playing in their enclosures. If you haven't been to the zoo, it is super cute and takes about three hours to walk through and see all of the animals.

I have a few more photos to upload -- they'll be coming soon!

XOXO
