Oh hi - Ojai




Right after the fourth of July I took the kids to Caravan Outpost in Ojai. We stayed in a vintage airstream that had a queen bed in the front and bunk beds in the back. Our first stop when we arrived was the Ojai Farmers Market. Then we headed to the Ojai Valley Inn for snacks and a glass of wine. Then we went on a tour of the Ojai Olive Oil company to see how olive oil is made.


After our busy day we decided to ride scooters to a nice Italian restaurant on the main strip. We found a park on our way that the kids LOVED. After dinner it was back to the hotel for S'mores and bed.




The next morning we had breakfast and then headed to an equestrian center so the kids could ride some ponies. It was so so so hot that we only did 2 loops around the grounds. 


We decided to go to Lake Casitas Water Park to cool off since it was about 110 degrees! It was so fun going down the lazy river with the kids - they loved it.


After the water park we rested for a little bit and then got ready for dinner at a place near our airstream. The food was delicious but it was still sooooo hot outside - so we decided to go swimming until the sun went down.

4th of July


I'll admit it - I'm WAY behind on blog entries. It's been a bit crazy with Buster in school now. I'll try and update the blog with all of our summer activities as well as my trip to London!  For now here are pictures from our 4th of July in Bay Island.



The first day was just us on the beach. Then the following day a few of our friends drove down to celebrate.






We watched fireworks from the beach and the kids stayed up waaaaaaay too late. All in all - a great 4th of July!

Olive + Buster - by Max Wanger


A few weeks ago my absolute favorite photographer - Max Wanger - took some pictures of the kids at the Midland Shop. I had the girls that work there style them both. The outfits are sooooo not my normal....but I LOVE them.
