The Fess Parker Lodge in Santa Barbara was so beautiful! I loved the colors, architecture, scenery, everything! It was all just so relaxing and wonderful. I couldn’t resist taking some pictures around the lodge.

The sunlight in California is unreal!

These were some of the tallest palm trees I’ve ever seen!

The warm golden sunsets were just so beautiful.

Could you imagine a wedding here?! I could!

The beautiful decor for our dinner that evening. We were sneaking in some shots as they were setting up!

I LOVED the floral arrangements that they had on the tables. No two arrangements were alike. Very cool.

I loved seeing the mountains to the east and the ocean to the west. A little slice of heaven right there in Santa Barbara. The plane ride in was unreal!

Love my girl, Matoli!

We befriended one of the local residents and celebrities. This little pup has been in photo shoots with super models and in the local magazines!

I was obsessed with this fountain for a good 10 minutes. Haha. If you look at my previous journal entry about my trip to Sonoma last summer, you will see I have a thing for fountains.

The view just outside of our room!

Up on the terrace enjoying the views!

Yes, I also have a thing for palm trees. ;) See!
