The Battle Wedding

Francis' cousin, Sarah, got married this weekend! The ceremony was held at one of my favorite parks - Elings Park. It sits on 230-acres boasting incredible views of the city and ocean. Maya likes to go hiking here...there are lots of squirrels for her to chase.

The view from where the ceremony took place was amazing...

It got really cold that evening but I was able to deal with it as long as I had the table cloth wrapped around my legs. :)

Here are a couple pictures of me and Francis...

Good Times in San Diego

We spent Saturday in San Diego. Trevor and Erica were here all the way from South Carolina so we drove down to spend some time with them. We were there only for a day, which was entirely way too short, but we definitely made the most of it while we were there.
Here's the view of Downtown from our room.
And here is the view of the Bridge to Coronado from the rooftop pool.
Poolside cocktails, great tapas at dinner (salt, anyone?) and amazing views from the top of the hotel bar...we couldn't have asked for a more fun weekend!!!

Avocado Festival

I can't believe it's already October! We saw the first rain of the season on Saturday but Sunday was breezy and sunny. I love this weather!!! And it looks like it's going to continue for the next few weeks...statistics show that October is one of the sunniest months of the year with the least amount of rainfall. :)

The California Avocado Festival was held October 3-5th and is the South Coast's largest free festival. I just recently found out that Santa Barbara County is the third largest avocado producer in North America. Alysa and I went to check it out today and had a blast.

Here we are eating CORN at the AVOCADO Festival (haha).
