The six of us at the SD Botanical Garden in Encinitas over Christmas

Daughter Natalie submits today’s Trendy Tuesday, and she’s into it! She has always been the adventurer in the family who goes camping, snowboarding, and surfing regularly with her boyfriend Ryan. Honestly, we’re jealous! We will be floating the Grand Canyon later this year!

Happy Earth Day!

Here are some local ways to celebrate our Mother Earth this week, and beyond!
