Hi everyone! My name is Amy, and I blog over at Sweet Home Santa Barbara. I am so excited to be here guest blogging for Shannon, and I hope she is thoroughly enjoying her vacation!
I couldn't decide what to post on. What do Shannon and I have in common? Of course the first thing to come to mind was our appreciation of how our incredible God chooses to turn our imperfection into perfection through His grace {can I get an amen?}.
I mean woah, that's still something that rocks my socks off daily.
But for whatever reason, I wanted to keep things light. So what else do we have in common? We are both California girls! Bingo.
5 things I love about California
One // All weather is dress weather.
If it's hot? We dress like the left picture. Cold? Add a few more accessories or layers, and dress like the right picture.
Now, keep in mind that "hot" for us is anything over 70, and "cold" is anything below 70. But hey, it's all relative, right?
Two // Want to go to the beach? You can drive there. Camping in the mountains? You can drive there. Snowboarding? You guessed it, you can drive there.
Now that's what I call diversity.

Three // We're smack dab between Hawaii and the East Coast.
Maui? 5 hour flight away.
Boston? 5 hour flight away.
Any longer and you may as well fly to Europe instead, am I right?
{Which probably explains why I have yet to fly to Europe. Need to fix that asap}
Four // Mexican food.
I've heard that we're known for our amazing Mexican food, and I can 100% affirm that rumor.

We have some bomb Mexican restaurants, and after looking at that picture, I may need to jet on over to one.
Five // How can you ever be upset about traffic when this is your view?

And there you have it folks, 5 reasons why I love California.
If you ever want to visit, you'll probably find me at your local Mexican restaurant. I'll have a burrito waiting for you.
