The first week of my winter break just passed, and I spent it in beautiful Santa Barbara with my boyfriend. I spent a week there and I had the best time of my life. There were so many activities we had planned that really allowed me to engage with Santa Barbara's most attractive sites, and I had a really fun first week of my winter break!
Friday - The first day we got there, Friday, we settled in, dropped all our stuff off, and went grocery shopping. Then we watched some TV and basically just got settled in from the 5 hour road trip.
Saturday - My boyfriend and I went out to breakfast at a cute little restaurant where I had a delicious egg scramble with a biscuit on the side. After breakfast, we went shopping at Best Buy, Ulta Beauty, and Anna's Bakery, and then met up with his parents and went shopping at Costco. After, my boyfriend and I went to Trader Joes and a small Japanese market, then went back home. Later in the afternoon we went to dinner at Los Agaves, then went on a lights trolley tour from 7:30 pm to 9 pm where we went around on a trolley looking at the neighborhoods with the most Christmas light decorated houses. All of the houses were decked out in blow up santas and reindeers, along with beautiful Christmas lights that really got me in the Christmas spirit!
Sunday - we went to see Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them with my boyfriend's roommate and my boyfriend's 3 best friends. It was such a funny movie, and I thought it was comedic, very intense, and I was engaged throughout the entire film. Afterwards we went to Chilis for lunch, and then to a shopping mall where we went to See's Candy, Williams Sonoma, etc.
Monday - On Monday we went to two shopping malls to do some Christmas shopping which was very successful, and then we went to The Habit, where I got a delicious hamburger while my boyfriend got chicken nuggets and a strawberry malt.
Tuesday - We met up with two of my boyfriend's friends at the golf course where we grabbed a delicious lunch at the restaurant there, went putting, then hit some golf balls on the driving range. After that we all went back to my boyfriends house where the three of them watched a show while I watched Greys Anatomy in another room.
Wednesday - We baked cookies that was my boyfriend's mom's grandmother's famous recipe. We made about 3 dozen cookies, so many that I had to take some home when I went home today!
Thursday - My boyfriend and I went to The Habit again, where I got a chicken club sandwich and he again got chicken nuggets and a strawberry malt. Then we just relaxed at home while I packed up and got ready to leave for home the next day.
Friday - I left around 9 am and made it home around 2 pm. Now I have just been doing laundry, organizing everything, am about to order take out sushi right now, and am meeting with some of my friends in an hour!
