We live in Southern California minutes from the ocean and we rarely go! We decided we are going to start taking advantage of this beautiful landscape a lot more often, I mean how fun will it be pitch an umbrella, have a picnic and just play! The greatest part of this blog is creating a little story for Vivi and being able to show her these moments years later. My husband and I grew up in the Midwest, it was great for so many reasons. Vivienne on the other hand will have such a different upbringing I mean who gets to go to the beach all year round, wear shorts in December, lobster dive in October! I love California for these reasons and so many more!
