Wine

We were lucky to have three nights away to celebrate our 10 year anniversary.  We were a little apprehensive to leave the kiddos at first as this was our first time away, but after being in wine country and in heavenly Napa Valley we barely remembered we had kids.  Not true of course, but we had such a wonderful time and we knew the kids were in good hands with Grandma and Grandpa for two nights and cousins for the third.

We stayed in the small town of Yountville.  Everything was divine and somewhat out of a dream.  The weather was perfect and allowed us to lounge by the pool, poke around the sleepy little town and of course taste lots and lots of wine.  We also ate like kings and dined in quaint French restaurants and were able to consume some of the best food we've ever had.  We expanded our pallets, watched sunsets over the rolling vineyards, enjoyed fresh baked pastries and yummy coffee every morning, spent time at the spa for a much needed massage and enjoyed driving around the area to experience a hand-full of the over 400 wineries in Napa alone.  It was a much needed balance of relaxation and exploration.  We will be back.
