Scenes From Our Weekend

Hello lovelies! Happy Tuesday. We’re jumping back into things… kind of… and wanted to share some pics from the weekend. I (that would be Karrie) flew up to Monterey for the weekend to see my baby brother graduate from school. My Lord, is it pretty up there.

After the graduation ceremony we shed our fancy duds (well, if you wanna call my Target dress fancy…) and headed to Garland Ranch in Carmel Valley:

Literally one of the coolest places I’ve ever hiked. Garland Ranch in Carmel Valley | Scenes From Our Weekend | Covet Living

And then for dinner we headed to one of the most gorgeous places on the planet – Big Sur. Only 25 minutes away (!) from where my brother lives, we ate at Rocky Point Restaurant, which I HIGHLY recommend for the views:

In fact, I highly recommend the whole Big Sur/Carmel/Monterey area for a vacay. It has an absolutely beautiful spot at every turn, and the people there are SO nice.

A few hours South, Steph was doin’ her thang, as per usual.

Here’s Coach Todd (!) Single-handedly teaching Steph to paddle out, push up, pop up, and dodge sharks:

The gift that keeps on giving = this black and white Zara dress we picked up two years ago, and that still passes back and forth between our closets:
