The Bachelorette..

There were no eliminations with this bachelorette (bad joke for those that don't get it..)


Missy, Carol Ann, Erin and I headed up for a lovely weekend in Santa Barbara. CA, Missy, and I drove up Friday and got the weekend started with a lovely walk and a few happy hours. For those that may not know, Santa Barbara has some awesome happy hours. As we found out, buy one get one free had a whole new meaning :)

After some evening fun, we headed to he train station to scoop up Erin and head back to the hotel for the night.

The next morning Erin went for a bike ride and the 3 of us took off for a lovely walk along the coast. The weather was warm, sunny and beautiful. CA had a lovely strand of pearls for me to wear with everything everywhere we went. A Southern tradition.

After our lovely morning it was time to hit some of the local winery's for some wine tasting. Erin surprised me with a lovely head piece that I proudly wore all day.

We headed out to dinner and then headed back for a relaxing evening at our room. On our way home we were discussing this rumor we heard about Steve's night out. I think it ended up looking a little something like this...

Mike, Steve? does this look about right?

Our Last morning ,we cooked up a nice breakfast and then set off to explore the pier and art walk. It was a wonderful weekend with some great friends. It reminds me that we are all apart of some giant quilt, cut from the same cloth at the heart and blessed to find each other.
