We Took This Trip To Garden Grove

Denver, Colorado? Too cold!
Miami, FL? Not our style!
Las Vegas, NV? No longer our scene!
Austin, TX? Too small!
San Francisco, CA? Too much Rice A Roni!
Manhattan, NY? Emily just left!
Chicago, IL? Too windy!
Charleston, SC? Too close to home!
Los Angeles, CA? Now here's an idea!

The night of July 30th Emily & her sister Mollie (Shout out to Mollie- Flava Flavvvv) were at a bar with some friends. An idea to take a last minute trip to LA was a great opportunity for these girls. A spontaneous adventure is not complete without Erin, & of course the girls made it happen and bought the tickets for LA the very next day!

After a week of gallivanting around Los Angeles, we decided to trade the east coast for the west coast AKA the best coast! We couldn't resist the perfect year round weather, the beach- with every activity you could imagine, and the gorgeous scenery. We get back to ATL, Emily decides not to return to NYC, and Erin quits her job...a new life in LA is just weeks away! Caaaaaaaalllliiffornia love (Shout out to 2pac, love your sisters from another mister, xoxo)

Although LA offers a variety of scenes, we fell in love with The South Bay; Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Marina del Ray, Venice Beach and Santa Monica. We love the idea of being able to walk out of our front door and bike along the Pacific Coast! The perpetual active lifestyle would be a dream come true -surfing, rollerblading, volleyball, beach yoga & pilates, boot camp in the sand, mountain biking, hiking, skiing, snowboarding, and skateboarding- what you know 'bout that Tony Hawke!

The laid back lifestyle definitely grabbed Emily's attention- just what she was looking for, especially after being in the bustle of the NYC scene for the past year (Shout out to our future LA friends- NO WORRIES!!)

Believe it or not we have thought about jobs- not as much as the average person, but it has crossed our minds ;) From working a wiener cart, to Greek yogurt pops, to bar-tending, to herb dispensing. Booming bracelet business might just be the way to go. Nevertheless, LA is full of endless opportunities & these girls will make it happen!

"If we want it then we got it, if we don't then all we gotta do is... go, get it, stay about our business" (Shout out to T.I.- Hold down the 'A' while we're away!)
