Our Friday field trip today took us to a beautiful park in Santa Barbara! I always love venturing up the coast to Santa Barbara as it feels like a mini vacation going there! Everything is always just so scenic and beautiful!! The kids loved playing at a new playground with their friends!
Olivia just hanging out! She insisted on wearing the beret! She had to wear a hat since I was!
The playground was a giant wooden structure that had all sorts of different things to climb on, balance on, and navigate! Here's Shane on a balance beam!
Livvy on a bridge! Hat eventually came off!
And of course a picnic lunch with some of the friends!
After playing at the park for awhile, we walked across the street to a botanical garden! The kids had fun traveling the paths and seeing the wildlife!
Here they are watching the ducks and the turtles in the pond! They especially loved seeing the turtles!
A fun path exploring the plants and flowers!
We ended our day going to the Food Truck night at the mall near our house! The kids just love it - Olivia was repeating "Grilled Cheese! Miss you!" as we were driving there! Tonight there was a balloon artist there, so of course we couldn't leave without three of them! Olivia got a baby octopus balloon!
And finally, this picture was just too pretty not to post! Yesterday we went for a beach walk in the morning! It was a gorgeous morning with a clear view of the Channel Islands! And to top it off, the surf was decent too, so it was entertaining to pause and watch some of the surfers! I love that doing things like taking the kids to walk at the beach is actually enjoyable again! The older two know to stay to the right on the path and not to go too far ahead, and Olivia loves riding her bike!
