Napa Valley:











My cousin got married a few months ago and so we all headed up to the Napa Valley area. I had never been but this town was absolutely gorgeous. We stayed in a little town called Rutherford and my cousin got married at this beautiful winery. I was with my mom and brother's so we didn't do a whole lot of exploring but we did have the english muffins from this place and they were pretty incredible, I want to go back just to have them again ;) My mom and I did get to do a little antique shopping so that was really fun to spend some mother/daughter time together. 

If you're ever able to go to Napa for a vacation or getaway, I'd recommend it. It was so peaceful. It seemed like everyone had grape vines in their front yard, so legit. It seemed like a different kind of life  around here - no one is really in a rush or always on the go.. We met a couple who comes here every year from Colorado, it's their yearly trip! I hope to return soon! Do you have a traditional yearly trip you take? That could be something fun to start with Nick.

  2. Hi Danni!! My husband and I live in San Diego...but we go to San Francisco/Bay Area every year to see family and also explore parts of the city that we have not yet been to. Every 2 to 3 years we try to leave the country...money permitting of course.

  3. hubby and i took a day trip to Napa when we visited San Fran last March & we absolutely fell in love. it is probably the most peaceful, beautiful place i've been. we were in heaven, just driving around. we are moving to Portland this summer (from Detroit) so a road trip back there will definitely be in order... maybe that could be our new yearly trip! (i think i just peed my pants).
