Venice Beach

While on vacation in California visiting relatives... my Dad decided that he wanted to take a trip to Venice Beach. I hadn't been there since I was a kid so I definitely wanted to go. So we gathered out group and went. It was so much fun! It was Arielle's, my younger daughter, first time to the beach! I took nearly 250 pictures that day. These are just some of my favorites.

Shopping in the Alleys of Downtown LA

We decided to go on vacation for Labor Day weekend to California... which meant for my Mom and I... shopping trip! I love to go to the Alleys and shop. Everything there is affordable and they have so much stuff! I even bought my wedding dress there a year and a half ago. There are so many interesting things and people there to photograph. And the best thing about going is getting to eat the hot dogs. Yum!
