Give Thanks {Hollister Family Ranch, Santa Barbara CA}

Thanksgiving feast comes only once a year, it is one of the few days that we usually spend time with our loved ones.  This time of year can be a joyous time anticipated time of year for us.  For this amazing family Thanksgiving week is something I think they daydream about all year long.  This amazing family comes together once a year to connect and love on one another, and they get to do this at a gorgeous Spanish Style family Ranch in Hollister near Santa Barbara CA.

I met Samantha through a close friend of ours and she contacted me to see if I was able to come down south to capture their family at the ranch and private beach.  I just could not resist this opportunity!  Yes it is gorgeous but more importantly I adore Samantha and wanted to badly meet her Mom, Dad, two brothers and their families!  But there was more, she invited my sweet family to come spend the day with them.  To eat lunch together, play at the beach together cook together, celebrate our daughters 10th birthday together and look at the stars together, they basically invited us into their lives and we loved it.

Thanks for inviting us into your lives, loving us, taking our kids out on the paddle board, cooking amazing food, telling us about Serial Podcast, laughing with us and I hope we started a new tradition.
