We spent the weekend celebrating Matt’s graduation in the Santa Ynez Valley wine tasting at the Bridlewood Winery. It was a perfect day to spend outside wine tasting.
Our family friend who works at Gallo Wines suggested that we take the cellar tour at Bridlewood Winery. I definitely recommend it! Our wine tour guide (Amy?) [...]

In to the Wild
Posted by Brittney | Filed under Dashboard Diaries, Happy Homemakers
We finally made it to the Wild Animal Park in San Diego for Mother’s Day. Our last attempt was rained out but this time the weather was perfect!
This place was so great! It was a lot different than a regular zoo. The animals are all grouped by their natural habitat and are allowed to [...]

Start Your Engines
Posted by Brittney | Filed under Dashboard Diaries
Well, better late than never…Matt and I made it to the Long Beach Grand Prix a couple of weeks ago. We made the executive decision to take the Metro Blue Line from LA to Long Beach. It was definitely an experience! It was really nice to skip the traffic and the parking though. We met [...]

After last weekend’s hiking adventure we [...]

Another to-do checked off our Sand Bucket List. We cheered on the Chicago Cubs at Dodger Stadium. Matt’s been a Cubs fan forever (I’m just along for the stadium hot dogs). In fact, the summer we met I think he wore his favorite Cubs t-shirt at least once a week. We referred to it as [...]

Get yourself to the Getty
Posted by Brittney | Filed under Happy Homemakers, Random Musings
We’ve officially checked something off our Sand Bucket List. Matt’s Mom and Dad came to visit us and since the weather wasn’t quite beach bum perfect we decided to go to the Getty Center. By the way, The Getty Center is FREE to visit. Impressive huh? It thrilled us penny pinchers to no end.
It’s a [...]

Sand Bucket List
Posted by Brittney | Filed under Happy Homemakers
I’m sure you’ve all heard of the infamous Bucket List. Now I keep seeing people’s Baby Bucket List (things to cross off before becoming parents). It inspired Matt and I to create a Sand Bucket List. Things we want to do before we move away from the beach. Get it? Sand? Beach? Bucket? I’m sure [...]
