Tiny Adventures: Montecito
Nine years ago, I met Adam. It was the day that changed everything for me, and it’s one that I honor annually with more emotion than even our wedding anniversary. (Without that day, I might never have met my partner in love & business... I might never have moved into the Cottage... and, most unfathomable of all, there would be no West.)
This year we wanted to celebrate by spending some time in Montecito with our family.
We were generously provided with a luxuriously designed 2020 Lincoln Aviator for our drive and overnight stay so that all 6 of us could get around town together safely and comfortably.

An epic sunset, a morning at the beach, some family meals, and quiet moments together in the hammocks throughout the property made our short getaway feel therapeutic in a way that was much appreciated.
We stayed at the Rosewood Miramar Resort, where we were able to catch up with our friends from goop and enjoy an outdoor wine tasting and dinner that they orchestrated to introduce their new Sundries boutique that opened at the hotel.
Travel, whether near or far, sometimes makes me anxious. I think it’s because there is no real “vacation mode” for our small business— we’re constantly on.

Luckily, this wasn’t one of those times. I was able to relax and rejoice by this exquisite coastline on which I met my extraordinary husband, and after which I named my child.
Note: This blog post was not sponsored, but a corresponding Instagram feature was sponsored by Lincoln, and the goop items and experience were generously gifted. As always, all words, opinions and photos are my own.
