3 Things.

It's hard to believe it was December in Santa Cruz with how gorgeous the weather was. After 5 days off relaxing with family, I can’t help wish I was still waking up at the beach. Christmas in Santa Cruz is the best, but I can’t help look forward to heading down to Palm Springs for New Years. Until then, here are a few {of so many} reasons why the holiday was especially fabulous.

 1. Beach Christmas.

2. A trip to the Monterey Bay Aquarium followed by a picnic overlooking the water.

3. Ziggy playing in the sand {probably his #1 favorite thing to do} and now I have one tired pup to show for it.
