Happy Summer to some of you lucky ducks! I still have a good 4 weeks before I get out, so this post might be painful for me to write and look at š
One of my favorite places to visit in So Cal during the summertime {or really anytime} is San Juan Capistrano Mission.
It really is the “gem” of all the missions, as they say! They keep it well maintained and the gardens are just gorgeous!
Here’s my hubby and I when we visited back in 2011 when we first started dating š Just a day trip down for us, but it sparked a mission for missions {we have now seen 15 of the 21 California missions and hope to see them all someday soon}!
We also LOVE the mission feel to the local town of San Juan Capistrano. Such a fun day trip!
Now onto the goodies!

JEN!!!!!!!!! It was soooo great meeting you at the So Cal Blogger Meet Up last Sunday!! Has it really only been a week?! I love San Juan Capistrano!! My husband and I were married inside the old Serra Chapel in 1986!!! He is a huge mission buff and we have been to I think all of them!!! Proposed at La Purisima and married at San Juan!! Cool connection friend!! Don't worry, my school doesn't get out until June 19!! When those early birds go back early August, we will still be enjoying our summer!!
