Lavender is the new green

Yesterday was the perfect day to drive up the PCH to Malibu Bluffs Park for the third annual MUSE Lavender Faire.

CC loved the open space -- she hit the ground running the minute I set her down -- as well as the music, dancing and games.

We arrived just as her fave singer Debi Derryberry was about to exit the stage, but she did get to hit the two play areas and take in the ocean just beyond the bluffs.

The faire served as a fundraiser for MUSE Elementary, which was founded by Suzy Amis Cameron and James Cameron (both of whom you can see in the top right corner of the top pic alongside Tom Arnold). The event hosted a green marketplace full of eco-friendly vendors under little white tents. Even the children were inherently eco-conscious -- I heard moms calling out for their little ones: "Luna!" "Harmony!" "Flower!"

We indulged in some lavender lemonade from Divine Nourishment and chocolate yogurt from Sno: LA. And as we were leaving, CC got her groove on by watching kids perform to "Jai Ho" and showing off some smooth moves herself during "One World."

The absolutely gorgeous Malibu surroundings -- the hills, the ocean, the green, green grass -- was the organic cherry on top of a healthy frozen yogurt sundae of a day.
