Oxnard, California Trip

In March Matt and I were so blessed and lucky to be able to take a trip down to Oxnard, California. My sister Lisa has some good friends that own a beach house and they are always so kind and generous to share it with us. Our original plan was to go down and stay with my sister Lisa and her husband Shane but when we got there they said that the place was just ours for a Anniversary gift. It was so sweet of them and that time was so nice for me and Matt. It was the greatest! Thank you so much Lisa and Barbara for letting us use your beach house. We did get to see a lot of my sister and her family which was so great. Her little girl Grace is getting so big and I miss her so much! She was making lots of noises and walking around when we were there. I am sure she is talking more now. We had lots of fun while we were down there. Mainly played on the beach right there in Oxnard. Went out to dinner a few nights with Lisa and Shane. It was very relaxing and a great way to reconnect with each other. I love taking trips with Matt. He is always so laid back and doesn't mind doing anything. He is always open for new things or just to sit and relax. We took a few pictures but somehow it ended up that we didn't take any pictures of us together. Matt and I always carry a camera as you can tell from all the family posts but when it comes to just us we fail to take any. So I am going to try and do better and capture more of our lives on camera.

This is a view of the line of beach houses where we were staying. It was absolutely beautiful there that week. In the low 70's mostly and clear skies.

One day we headed to Venice Beach. It is a very fun place to go. Lots of little shops and tons of people just walking. There is lots of artists that go down there and most of your homeless hang down there as well. There is definitely always something to see and hear on every corner.

This was just a construction wall that had been put up while they have been doing construction if I remember right.

It gets a little busy here. And this was like on a Thursday I think in the middle of the day.

Grace came down to play in the sand one day.

And get loved by mom

I love our new camera. And Matt is getting so good at his little picture taking. He has the eye for it I think. And always take a good pic when he sees it. Here our some photos from our trip that he took.

This was a first day there and the sun was putting off the perfect light.

And of course the beach always has the perfect sunsets.

These pictures were just from the balcony from the beach house. It is such a beautiful place. I just love the beach. Wish I could be there everyday.
