This weekend I celebrated the birthday of one of my very best friends in Santa Barbara with a hike and picnic. The term Hike-nic was created just for the occasion. Now that the pain of the uphill hike is over and forgotten, I think it was a pretty cool way to celebrate. A beautiful view, gorgeous weather and some great people. I brought along my camera for the occasion. I didn’t shoot as much as I would have liked. Naturally, after declaring to Brad that I was not going to fall at all that day, I couldn’t help but stay true to my graceful self and fell twice during the excursion. After that I realized I needed to concentrate more on the walking and less on the picture taking. I did get a few in, and here are some of my favorites.
(I spent the following day with one of my 2010 couples. Stay tuned for an awesome Santa Barbara engagement session with Jade and Mike.)
Brad snapped this photo of me and Monica (the birthday girl)… and Peter who is super happy to be hiking.

This photo pretty much sums up Brad’s love for hiking and the Carrs are looking super cute cuddling together at the picnic.
