Anniversary

The main reason Chance and Kenzie came was to babysit for us so that we could go to Santa Barbara. We have been married 13 years and have never really done anything to celebrate our other anniversaries. We decided it was time for us to do something!
We had such a fun couple days. Santa Barbara is BEAUTIFUL. The trees/plants there are so amazing. It is like you are in another world and the landscape reminded me so much of Hawaii.



 I love 'birds of paradise'. I think they are the coolest flowers. 
 We ate lunch at Baja Sharkeez. It was a mexican restaurant that was so cheap and delicious. 
 Brett feeling like he's back in England!
 The pics below are from the Santa Barbara Courthouse. It was such a cool place. We went on a tour. The gardens were amazing-I guess they have a lot of weddings there.


 This was the law library in the courthouse and the Picture below is the ceiling in that room. The architecture was so neat. 
 It felt very much like a medieval castle inside.

We went up inside this clock tower and it had a great view of the city.
 This is what was happening at home while we were away. The babies fell in love with "Chancy". Especially Syd. She doesn't like a whole lot of people so this is a very big deal. She still says, "Chancy-wuv you"

Well I can't even believe that you were able to get away without sickness, a vet emergency, or some other catastrophe. What a beautiful place. And to think you were actually able to be by yourselves. You certainly deserved it.

So glad you two got to have a nice time away. Santa Barbara looks so nice. I have never heard of those flowers- they are really cool. That courthouse looks awesome.
