Inspiring Millennial dog moms to live modern, meaningful lives.
Typically Matt and I like to go to California a few times a year. We have a second home in La Verne, which is in East LA County, about 30 minutes from Disneyland and Huntington Beach. The drive is an easy six hours from our Arizona house. We love to pack up the dogs for relaxing trips, and that’s what we planned to do this past weekend. We made it to California safely, but plans took a quick, unexpected turn a day after we got into town.
Many of you know that Matt and I have a second home located in La Verne, CA. We like to go there to relax, hit up the beach and enjoy the small town feel that La Verne offers. We hadn’t been to the house since October 2015. Since then we’ve rescued McKenzie Rae and bought a more suitable SUV for our growing doggy family. We also hadn’t seen Matt’s grandma since we got engaged. Her house is on our way to La Verne so we decided it’d be a good opportunity to drop in on her. This trip was McKenzie’s first road trip and it was a success.
What I love about La Verne, CA is all of the local, small businesses. It has such a small town feel. Whenever we visit our home, we frequent a pizza place, doughnut shop and pet depot, all of which are locally owned. As usual, we had to take a trip to Katie’s Pet Depot, a super fun pet store that has everything you could possibly need! We loaded Khloee and Wynston into the car and made the grueling two minute drive.
Today we left Arizona for a relaxing stay at our California house. It’s located in La Verne, CA which is in the East LA County area. It’s a 20 minute drive to Disneyland, just to give you an idea of where it’s at. It was a quick and easy 6 hour drive, and we made it here with no problems!
