Labor Day Weekend: Camping in Flagstaff











We took our trailer out of storage for the first time this summer & headed up to Flagstaff for some cooler weather. We took the girls to the Grand Canyon for a short hike & some amazing views.

Sea Ranch, Montecito, CA.






























For our summer getaway, we spent a week in Montecito, CA. at the Sea Ranch Estate. It was an amazing house near the Santa Barbara beaches. We enjoyed the cool weather & relaxing with Mark's family. The important thing is that we all got to spend time with Grandma Helen.
