Our favorite bff.

Love you!!

Margaritas!!!

Soooooooo ok another self serving couple pic... I just had to.

Nice day to be out and about...

Tree lined streets still do exist it seems, why would I ever move from CA? This was the walkway outside a music shop Teddy wanted to check out.

A Float Sushi, Pasadena CA

So if I have to reach into a little moving boat to grab sushi does it therefore count as exercise? I think so.

Coffee Break!!!

He is clearly the artistic one, I can barely draw a smiley face...

Three people yet four margaritas... is this a problem?

Capping off our last day of vacation with drinks with my Father, yes we are alcoholics, please don't judge.

Nice place for a party...

So I saw this open expanse of lawn and of course my mind immediately goes to "party", great place for an event...

Wacha lookin at...? I'm over here!!!

So yes this is a shameless candid boyfriend pic, what can I say, I'm only human. Wonder what he was thinking... No babe no matter how hard you flap your arms you cannot fly, sorry. :)

Santa barbara, Bell Tower, The view from the top!

The Bell Tower at the court house, make the climb up the stairs or cheat like we did and use the elevator, either way the end result is the same, a beautiful view of Santa Barbara!

The view from breakfast

Taken at "The Boathouse" during breakfast, they make a damn good Bloody Mary if I do say so myself, and I do.

Drinks Poolside

Mojitos poolside, perfection. And yes the hat is mine... what can I say, I'm white and red is not my color!!! The boyfriend is the one with the perfect tan... lucky bastard...

The Vineyards

The Vineyards, wander through them with a glass of your favorite vintage and someone special.

Fess Parker Winery

What can I say about this place, besides that it offered a delightful tasting experience. Be sure to check out the barrel room in the back for a reserve tasting, ask for Sateena. Then grab a few bottles and head outside for drinks on the lawn and views of the vineyard and surrounding mountains! And if you feel so inclined pack a picnic and make a day of it at this place, you wont be disappointed.

Champagne on arrival, thanks Dave!

So if your ever planning on staying at the Fess Parker Double Tree Resort in Santa Barbara be sure to call ahead and tell Dave the valet the reason for your trip. He went above and beyond in making our trip a memorable experience, the best customer service i have ever experienced from a hotel.

Oysters on the way to Santa Barbara

This is the first of several posts made in regards to a trip we took to celebrate my 25th Birthday in Santa Barbara. First stop was the Jolly Oyster in Ventura, bring some wine, bread Tapatio and your appetite! The oysters were excellent, and the company was even better.

Photo Booth Break!!

So I just had to add this pic. I think this was taken on our second date? Whoever owned that photo booth made a killing that night...

More Utah

These were taken during a rather long and cold hike, although the views were incredible I think next time we all might dress a little... um, differently? Californians really aren't used to hiking in freezing temperatures it seems...

Utah

So this was the first trip taken as a couple, Therefore of course we chose to spend 24 hours in a car with two other people in order to get to a fantastic home in Utah from which to embark on our Mormon ski adventure! (Side note: A gay couple staying in a small Utah town makes for some very interesting looks from the locals, but I must say the chaps took it on the chin, and we felt right at home!)
