A Coastal Christmas
It was days after Christmas, and all through the land, not a creature as stirring, except to eat treats… Happy holidays, darlings!

Bodega Bay {Adventures}
A few weeks ago, we drove up the coast to Bodega Bay, where I used to go camping with my dad and grandma every summer. It was a bittersweet trip but you can’t beat the scenery. It’s the most darling little coastal town. Patrick’s has the best saltwater taffy and it’s candy stripe paint job… Continue reading
